The building scale has three main buildings, the skyscraper,
the airport and the home. All of these building styles tell us something about
America as a country. The skyscraper was built to discuss the efficiency of
Americas. The skyscraper holds several businesses all in one place. These businesses
also attract the idea of socializing throughout the building. The skyscraper is
also a relatively modern design. Theses buildings are very recognizable such as
the Willis Tower (Sears Tower) in Chicago, Illinois. This is the most iconic
building in the city and one of the most iconic buildings in the United States.
The airport is also a very modern design in America. The
airport describes how America likes to keep up with the newest trends. Most
airports have multiple restaurants to provide for the demand of food while
people wait for their flights. All of these restaurants are popular food
chains. This is because America has products that they trust and that they
market these companies. Americans are more likely to go to a well-known place
that they trust, instead of trying something new.
The final building design is the home. The homes nowadays
are typically multiple floors that both convey socialization due to an open
concept, but also privacy with multiple bedrooms. The amount of bedrooms and
bathrooms in houses nowadays shows how Americans like to socialize. By having
more rooms, these families are able to houseguests. These homes are also based
in neighborhoods. They are typically close together, so there is plenty of
socialization throughout the community.
Below is an image of another building of the twentieth
century, the stadium. The stadium shows how the world is building
multi-functional venues. Stadiums are typically known for sporting events, but
they also have concerts, rallies, and other community events. This large space
is very accommodating to tens of thousands of people. Stadiums bring people
together with common interests, whether it is at specific team, specific
musician, or a specific event.
