Architecture

Architectural Arts

Architecture is the art and technique of designing and building, distinct from mere construction, employed to satisfy both practical needs of shelter and expressive or aesthetic ambitions. One of the oldest known instances of monumental, deliberately composed building is Gobekli Tepe in southeastern Turkey, a complex of large circular stone enclosures with carved T-shaped limestone pillars, dated to roughly 9500 BCE and built by mobile hunter-gatherer communities before the development of settled farming. In ancient Egypt, monumental architecture developed through the mastaba, a flat mud-brick superstructure raised over a tomb, first built at Saqqara during Dynasty 3, around 2649 to 2575 BCE; King Djoser's vizier Imhotep then stacked mastabas atop one another and built in stone, producing the Step Pyramid, and pyramid building reached its height in Dynasty 4, around 2575 to 2465 BCE. Structurally, much premodern architecture relied on post and lintel, or trabeated, construction, a system architecture has continually revised through new materials from stone and timber to iron, steel and reinforced concrete.

Facts
Medium
Structural materials suited to enclosing and supporting space, historically stone, mud brick, timber and masonry, and in later periods iron, steel, glass and reinforced concrete, organized through systems such as post and lintel construction. 1
Signature Technique
Load-bearing systems refined from post-and-lintel construction and the arch through to the modern tube structure; Fazlur Rahman Khan's mid-20th-century tube structure let steel-framed buildings rise far higher than earlier masonry systems allowed. 2
Notable Example
Filippo Brunelleschi's dome for Florence Cathedral, completed in the early 15th century, which transformed both the building and the city and, with it, the role and status of the architect as a distinct profession. 2
Disputed
Place of Origin
No single point of origin; monumental architecture arose independently in several early civilizations, building on structural systems, such as post-and-lintel construction, that themselves trace to prehistoric building practice before any written record. 2
The cited source dates the practice of architecture only to the prehistoric era, before writing, without naming one place; historians treat monumental architecture as having arisen independently in more than one early civilization rather than diffusing from a single origin.
