This week’s lecture take us back through time and see the architects of the renaissance era. So what have I learn from the class? To simply answer that question, the class focuses on how the architecture masters we’ve studied throughout the course have all use history as a tool and inspiration. There is also no doubt that one of the most significant building of all-time from the Renaissance era is the Brunelleschi Dome by Filippo Brunelleschi. Brunelleschi borrowed history as a tool to build his renowned work from the ancient Roman. After his visit to Rome, he brought back the impression he had on the ancient ruins and the Roman architectures which is simply what Vitruvius has said, Principle of commodity, firmness, and delight. The first concept that Filippo Brunelleschi meant to do was to add a flying buttress but there is a rule that architects may not build buttresses in Italy so he created this remarkable Brunelleschi Dome.

Another architect who we must talk about that uses history is Le Courbusier. Le Courbusier studied about Vitruvius’ man and simply make his own human proportion to make an architecture that lies within the concept of symmetry, proportion and rhythm.
So this lesson has taught me to be aware of history and make a great use of it. This is why we must pay great attention to our history class!
