Architecture serves a variety of purposes in the world. This can be seen through the architectural design of buildings as well as the materials used for their development. Greek and Roman architecture is an excellent example of this development, and the evolution of Greek architecture follows a distinct pattern; that is, and it developed organically to serve the needs of the Greeks through various phases of Greek history. Each style of architecture carries its own unique and separate characterizations
Italian architecture has influenced many other architects, architecture and the world. Italian architecture became famous during the Renaissance. Many churches, palaces, and public buildings were built in this time. Some of these buildings were built by famous architects like Brunelleschi, Borromini, and Palladio.

These books were published in 1554 in Rome while he was visiting Daniele Barbaro. Essentially the purpose of the books was to serve as guidebooks for historical monuments within Rome. The first book he had written contained short descriptions for travelers that discussed the appearance and history of classical ruins. His guidebook was actually a replacement for an older
stranger to this trend; since most of of our records come from Western historians (Greek, Roman, European). Western movements and architects are depicted as artistic and influential architecture while Eastern architecture is rarely credited or talked about. The Ottomans had equally significant contributions to architecture development thanks to architects such as Koca Sinan (1538-1588).

The late 19th century to the early 20th century, architecture was typically influenced by Roman or even Greek architecture, which is also known as “federal style” or “Greek Revival”. And of course, each revival style can be identified specifically with an architeture of an earlier time period. Expecially the ones fom early American or Euorpienc places. One could also the call the architecture buildings in this time period: Neoclassical (New Classical) , which are inspired from Greece and Rome. Building
Contemporary architecture indicates to the style of today’s architecture. Its style is not defined; because it is constantly changing, plus it choses different styles and eras. On the other hand, Modern Architecture has defined its style. It describes a specific era design, that it leads to the history of machination and to the 1920s – 1950s styles. Many people mistaken in defining modern architecture and contemporary architecture, say that both of them are completely the same. This research paper
University of Tampa and The Renaissance architecture: How an obsolete hotel and sense of individualism shaped the campus’s future design Without any doubt the architecture of University of Tampa buildings is among the most spectacular designs within Tampa Bay. If you walk through the campus it is almost impossible not to notice the round arches, the pointed domes, and the Herringbone brickwork. The architecture methods are immensely similar to the classical revival period of Renaissance art
inspiration of nature in design created a movement of Organic Architecture through functionalism and minimalism since the 1800’s influencing some of the greatest architects to emerge. Functionalist architects and artists design utilitarian structures in which the Organic Architecture dictates the development within and moves outward in harmony with its surroundings, without regard to such traditional devices as axial symmetry and classical proportions or any other heavy ornamentation.
