acropolis + xianyang

acropolis + xianyang



1. As mentioned in the lecture, the Acropolis is something that builds overtime in reaction to the environment where the Xianyang palace was built all at once. The Xianyang palace contains the stacking element along with horizontal lines, while the acropolis has a pattern of vertical lines. 

2. Both structures were constructed using extreme detail. Xianyang has a little more of a variety of textures and color, being that it is made up of both stone and wood as well. They both represent their culture in how they look. 

3. They are both harmonious because of repeated patterns using shape and line.The acropolis having repeated vertical columns and the xianyang palace having repeated rectangular shape and contrast in color.
