Architecture Style Developing through Application of Mathematics: Concepts of Geometry &Proportion in Architecture (original) (raw)

Architecture has its unique relationship with mathematics, incorporating the study of such mathematical concepts as ratio, proportion, scales and symmetry. Put up definitions and explanations of the mathematical concepts of elementary geometry, stating their connection to architecture and ratio and proportion relate to architectural plan with mathematical accuracy in measuring. In this paper showing the connections between geometry and architecture with what appears to be an obvious example from various styles, architectural works which are also derived from basic geometric figures.The aim is to re-search the age old geometrical principles applied in Indian architecture. Deriving ancient principles of interrelationship between ‘Geometry & Architecture’ in three major branches of Indian architecture, particularly, Hindu Architecture and Islamic Architecture. Historically, architecture was part of mathematics, and in many periods of the past, the two disciplines were indistinguishable...
