Geometries
Geometry has always played a role of primary importance for architectural design.
The relationship between the geometric and architectural disciplines corresponds to the transposition of the theoretical idea into created objects. The geometric figure consists of the simplification of the real object and represents a learning and communication tool. Below it is possible to consult the history of geometric figures, mathematical properties and calculation procedures considered fundamental for design development in architecture.
