Project: Precedent Study
Essay (Group)
In a group of 5, we need to write a 500-word essay, including images, sketches or diagrams to fit maximum five A4-size papers of the chosen building which is Florence Cathedral in Italy on its design ideas and significant contribution to its culture.

Reflection:
From this project, I learn about the basic architectural theory through a consideration of intentions, concepts, patterns, disciplines, architectural language and contextual relationships. I also learn to classify and exemplify the sequence of history periods and how they are represented architecturally. After this project, I can also recognise and recall appropriate verbal architectural vocabulary when referring to building types, style and periods.
