First Day of Arch 48

On my first week of Arch 48 in City College of San Francisco, our instructor, Amily, taught and showed us pictures of music inspired architecture.

 Soon after she arrived into our class, she opened a few songs which surprised me since I have no idea how music is related to our class. 
But later when she started her lecturing, I soon began to understand how music could affect architecture world.

I learned about:-
-the meaning of what architecture really means
-how music is related to architecture
-artistic style of the buildings
-how lighting can change our view of the surrounding
-how natural substance is a part of art related to architecture
 

This is a picture of Hotel Liesma which took part in a music themed hotel competition.
I found it when I was searching for a music inspired architecture on google.
This is created by Jevgenijs Busins and Liva Banka.
The shape and its wavy outlines are inspired by musical rhythms.
The silhouette of this building is a perfect draw for those who do not have any affinity towards music.



 This is one of the pictures showing how a natural substance can change our view.
Normally it is just a normal waterfall but when a certain red stone was powdered and
 added to the water it changes the color of the waterfall. How is this related to architecture? I believe that this style can be used as an ornament in the garden of a house giving the house a sense of nature.
