If you look carefully at the patterns on buildings,
you can sense a rhythm to their order. These rhythmic patterns give
a dynamic quality to a building, making it seem to be very lively. Rhythm
is very apparent in rows of columns or repeated arches. Such patterns
carry our eye across the façade of the structure and add visual
excitement to a large form. |
