Arsitektur Dalam Konteks Estetika

Abstract

Aesthetics may be defined narrowly as the theory of
beauty, or more broadly as that together with the philosophy
of art. Traditionally, the philosophy of art concentrated on
its definition, but recently this has not been the focus, with
a careful analyses of aspects of art largely replacing it. Philosophical
aesthetics is here considered to center on these latter-
day developments. Some aesthetic effects available in
architecture include tonal variation, repetition, field effects,
symmetry/asymmetry, perceived mass, subliminal structure,
linear dynamics, tension and repose, pattern, contrast, perspective,
3 dimensionality, movement, rhythm, unity/Gestalt,
matrixiality and proportion Generally, architecture adheres
to the aesthetic principles of symmetry/asymmetry, focal point,
pattern, contrast, perspective, 3D dimensionality, movement,
rhythm, unity/gestalt, and proportion.
