Concepts and Materialization of Envelope of Architectural Buildings in the Future

Abstract

This paper is based on a scientific methodology developed by its author

(1987) in his doctoral dissertation and later (2004) published in a book.

According to this methodology, architecture is understood as a system

consisting of four basic elements: Environment, Man, Boundaries and

Perspectives. As a case study, this methodology was checked and confirmed

(in the dissertation and in the cited book) on the example of an oriental

type town hall in Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Montenegro, Kosovo

and Macedonia, and later in all published books, to date.

In this paper, the author draws attention to the element of Perspective (in

architecture) thus emphasizing its exceptional importance in understanding

architecture as a whole. In doing so, this element cannot be separated from

the other three elements (Environment, Man, Boundaries) since with them

he builds architecture as a single whole.
