or alternatively:
The tecture in architecture. That's some right good spelling there, but hopefully you get the point. We associate the concept of texture with the surface quality of an object, or the tactile feel of a surface. Whether something is smooth or rough is a simple example. In architecture, the overall impact of a building is determined by a number of factors, with it suface quality being one element that architects manipulate through building materials and finishes. A recent example that highlights the importance of surface texture in design is the 'Birdsnest' Olympic Stadium in Beijing. From a viewer's perspective, apparent changes in surface texture are also one of the visual signs we use in determining the age of a building. This challenge will run until Sunday, 15 November, so you have 2 weeks to get out and create some images that show the surface of a structure and how it's texture is important to the impression that the building creates.

Good example of how a photograph can bring out the surface and create an impression of age and construction. Regards, Peter |

I love those old buildings in the UK. There are a lot like that around Old Winsdor as well.
Different to the architecture in other parts of Europe and that one is restored really well too. |

Nice set of images Mr P.
The following photos are less spectacular but they show how the builder deviated from the norm in my suburban neighborhood. Usually the masonry has a rough surface but here is a smooth surface; round stones. Also the stone exterior blends with the chimney stones which creates the impression of a giant fireplace which speaks of warmth. This home expresses low friction and warmth = a happy home IMO. ![]() |

Glad I didn't live in that house as a kid Bob.
When I was growing up I used to hit a tennis ball against the side of the house every day (drove my mum crazy). Would have been impossible with that place. Great texture. |
