This less explored aspect of architecture is discussed and explains the enduring qualities of ten specific buildings from architectural history to present day due to their structural aesthetics. Based on comprehensive research, a critical analysis is presented of the constraints and other influences on architectural and structural design, such as culture, patronage, geometry, available resources and technologies. 000823603 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000823603 650_0 $$aArchitecture$$xAesthetics. 000823603 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aThomas, Derek.$$tMasters of the Structural Aesthetic.$$dSingapore : Springer Singapore, ©2017$$z9789811054440 000823603 852__ $$bebk 000823603 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-981-10-5445-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000823603 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:823603$$pGLOBAL_SET 000823603 980__ $$aEBOOK 000823603 980__ $$aBIB 000823603 982__ $$aEbook 000823603 983__ $$aOnline 000823603 994__ $$a92$$bISE
