the way they all built caves

??????Just looking at some building which has a very wonderful building design gives us a sense of peace and belonging. We all throb within ourselves to own such marvel of a wonderful building, the main but hidden essence of these designs is the architecture and the architect. Architecture is the perfect blend of the creativity with technology with the aid of building materials and elements, the perfect pairing of light and shade, the perfect combination of air and space, the perfect mix of water and earth. Architecture is the process of building after a careful planning followed by the designing and then the construction of the masterpiece. Architecture is always considered to be those buildings found during these modern times where people gape at the tall sky scraper to the elegant villas on a cliff. Well it was actually in existence and usage even during the times of the cavemen, the way they all built caves, tree houses and other sheltering means. As man evolved, architectures also evolved, as man became civilized, architecture also came with some style. Architecture is not only the external appearance but also the way the building is being designed internally, that is the interiors, the way the furniture and the ornaments are being arranged and the way they seem pleasant just like the external appearance, comfort of the building comes under architecture. The different types of architecture include the Victorian architecture, gothic, renaissance, liberal, etc. all these depend upon the time of the construct of the building. But as we humans whither as we age, even these buildings whither as time passes. ?


??????In order to preserve these buildings from these damages and also in order to repair them from the damages already made the process of conservation architect is followed. In this process the buildings are renovated and it is taken care to prevent any losing of the originality of the classic designs. People love originality and the old proverb old is gold is being followed for a long time and people like valuing gold, hence these architectural marvels value is also taken care of. As the name suggests conservation architect leads to the conservation of the buildings. Technology has not been there during those days during the building of those architectural marvels, but we have technology nowadays and the architects are using this technology wisely to build the buildings back into their original forms without as much as missing an angle and line. ?
