Course detail
Architectural expression
FA-AVY-TEAcad. year: 2025/2026
If we call things by the right names, we can give them the right meaning and then also the right form and expression. Thus, perception is essential. Perception of architecture is defined by our personal experience from the youngest age. On the way of architecture there are many decisions. All the decisions define the final form of a house. Which expression is adequate? How did and how do the masters do this? Can architecture influence the inner processes of a person?
