ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
Point
Line
Plane
Volume
These elements become form with characteristic of substance, shape, size, color and texture
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
Point
Indicates a position in space
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
Line
A point extended becomes a line with properties of length, direction and position with properties of
1. Length
2. Direction
3. Position
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
Plane
A line extended becomes a plane with properties of
1. Length and width
2. Shape
3. Surface
4. Orientation
5. position

Design elements
Volume
A plane extended becomes a volume with properties of
1. Length, width and depth
2. Form and space
3. Surface

ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
Point
A point marks a position in space. It is static, centralized and directionless.
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
A point marks
1. Two ends of a line
2. The intersection of two lines
3. The meeting of lines at the corner of the plane or volume
4. The center of a field
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
As the point is static, it dominates its field and organizes elements around it
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
Point in architecture is generated by these forms
1. Line
2. Circle
3. Cylinder
4. Sphere
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
Two points in architecture
Axis of entry Axis between two sculptures
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
Line
A point had no length and indicated static case
A line has a length and indicates direction
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
A line serves to
1. Join, link, surround or intersect other visual elements
2. Describe the edges of and give shape to planes
3. Articulate surfaces of planes
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
A line character is determined by
1. Length : width ratio
2. Contour
3. Degree of continuity (repetition)
ARCH 660231 Architectural Design 1Lecture : Introduction
Design elements
A horizontal or vertical line indicates stability and equilibrium
An oblique line indicates dynamism
