To better understand architecture, there are principles of construction and design, as well as elements involved in this. The principles of construction are the Post and Lintel, the Column and Entablature, the Arch and its Derivatives, and the Cantilever. These principles were the basis of architectural innovation and can be seen with the new concepts of architecture today. On the other hand, the principles of design are the emphasis and subordination, the balance, the scale and proportion, the rhythm, the harmony, and the contrast. These principles of design are used to arrange the elements which are the line, the colors, the texture, the space, the value, and the shape. 
Aside from all these terminologies, in architecture one thing that be should noted with importance is its beauty. Not all art works are beautiful. Some are made with a unique design but if it does not meet its function then it is not beautiful. There are standards to consider and it should also be differentiated if it is an admirable or enjoyable beauty. Admirable beauty in art is objective for it is contemplated upon the art world. On the contrary, enjoyable beauty is subjective for beauty is in relation to the viewer.
In conclusion, there are a lot of things that I had learned within this month of learning about architecture. It cannot be summarized within this because before this subject, I know nothing about it. This was a new thing for me because it never caught my interest before. Nonetheless, I had enjoyed this topic and I would want to learn more of it.
