Renaissance Architecture - HSTARC2

For a quick definition of the name of this architectural period, "Renaissance" is derived from a the term or word "la rinascita" which means is rebirth. From the word itself, it is evident that it brought back to life what was lost and what used to be. In this case, what was brought back to life or given rebirth to are the Greek and Roman architecture of the older ages. It was shown in the structure the stylish but efficient structure revivals. There was further development of the structures in the area of the renaissance and this period. The proportion and symmetry was also a factor to this period of the history of architecture, which was shown trough the use of Greek/Roman pillars. Aside from these, it was also considerable factor to show and use those only simple geometry in the building of the structures. Simplicity was shown at its best and according to the principles of what was being revived or rebirth. Renaissance is usually divided into three periods. Mainly, "Early Renaissance" or "Quattrocentro", "High Renaissance" and "Mannerism". "Early Renaissance" or "Quattrocentro" did not much develop the architectural part of the period, but rather it was the starting point of it. Orders, ideas and concepts were found in this part. It was the start of the rebirth. "High Renaissance" now applied and used the classical concepts and ideas from the previous. And lastly the "Mannerism" somewhat perfected the concepts and now proceeded to the experimenting of how the concepts and ideas and previous form can futher be developed, in an architectural way. So, What caught my attention in this period of architectural development was the proper and simple show of the orderliness of the structures being made. It was simple but magnificent. Another was the building of the domes which was usually seen in large structure and bassilicas. It was used in large structures which gave it a big statement. Anyway, for me Rennaissance was just building rebuilding the buildings from the concepts of the past. Thats the way I see it and how it is.
