Architecture

For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Architecture the science of design-  there are many concepts that need to be taken when building such as the base, weather, the shape, which direction pollution will flow
Last call for planet earth-  the key concept is that earth is in danger by the climate change and global warming but we can do a lot to help the problem such as green architecture
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
Architecture the science of design relates to the text by describing the most used material concrete. Last call for planet earth relates to the text by mentioning green architecture and how to fight global warming by building with certain materials.
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of Architecture?
You can tell the film architecture the science of design is not a present made video but it added depth to architecture by explaining the base of the building such as the concrete underneath the skyscrapers and how they have to collect data of how the building will react with weather such as wind. Last call for planet earth adds depth to my understanding of green architecture and how there are several shades of green meaning that there is much more to do to make the earth more green.
4. From the group of four that you had a choice: Why did you choose that film?
I chose to watch Architecture: the science of design because I am very interested in anything that has to do with science and Last call for planet earth sustainable development and architecture because it had the most interesting title.
