Elevation Design
Building elevation design is the architectural representation of a building's exterior view from one side. It's crucial for aesthetics and functionality, influencing both the appearance and the structural aspects of the building.
Front Elevation: Displays the facade, including entrance, windows, and roofline, giving the first impression of the building.
Side Elevation: Shows the sides of the building, providing details about depth and profile.
Rear Elevation: Represents the back of the building, often including patios, decks, or backyards.
Modern: Characterized by clean lines, large windows, and minimal ornamentation. Often includes flat roofs and asymmetrical shapes.
Traditional: Features classic elements such as pitched roofs, columns, and decorative trims. Symmetry and detailed facades are common.
Contemporary: Combines elements from modern and traditional designs, using innovative materials and unique forms.
