A Study on the Architectural Characteristics of Number and Geometry as the Law of Nature |
| Abstract |
The doctrine of Imposed Law of Nature explains the general characters which compose objects in the Nature and pursues the inner order between the elements of architecture through the concepts of proportion like the geomentric drawing of ancient Greek architecture. It means that the doctrine of Imposed Law takes the induction which was made the method from the general phenomena to the conclusion,the process of architecture has 'compositonal' characters from the emphasizing of geometric induction. Such characters ahve changed to arithmetic concepts of proportion through the amalgamation of anthropomorphism of vitruvius and Pythagorean Numerology.The doctrine of Immanent Law Nature grasps the relationship between elements which were given by God, and gives outer order among the elements through the geometry and the symbolic numbers like the mediaeval architecture. It takes deductive method which was made of applying general law to individual phenomena, the process of architecture has 'symbolic'characters which could have meaning.Fanallu, the two themes mentioned above present the methods which show the induction and the give in the process of architecture, and that has a reflection of compositionalcharacter and this has a reflection of symbolic character. |
