Polykleitossought to portray the perfect man and to
impose order on human movement.He achieved his goals by employing
harmonic proportions and a system of cross balance for all parts of the body.

IKTINOS and KALLIKRATES, Parthenon, the Temple of Athena Parthenos (looking southeast), Acropolis, Athens, Greece, 447–438 BCE.The architects of the Parthenon believed that perfect beauty could be achieved by using harmonic proportions. The controlling ratio for larger and smaller parts was x = 2y + 1 (for example, a plan of 17 by 8 columns).

Which of the preceding rectangles is more pleasing to look at?
According to the ancient Greeks, and verified by modern psychologists, most people find the rectangle on the left more pleasing. The Greeks used this rectangle in constructing many of their
buildings - it is called a golden rectangle.

LEON BATTISTA ALBERTI, west facade
of Santa Maria Novella, Florence, Italy, 1456–
1470.Alberti’s design for the
facade of this church features a pediment-
capped temple front and pilaster-framed arcades. Numerical ratios are the basis of the proportions
of all parts of the facade.

“DELIGHT”: Seeing Architecture
Mechanisms of Perception

“A great deal of what goes under the name of perception is, in the wide sense of the term, recall.”
Sir Frederic Bartlett
![Page 20: New Intro to Architecture Week 4](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022110115/54c73cec4a795907688b4582/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
“....we have come to live in a very visually dominated culture, and it is easy to forget that space is also perceived through the sensations of sound, smell and
even touch.
Perception is an active process through which we make sense of the world around us. To do this of course we rely upon sensation, but we normally integrate
the experience of all our senses without conscious analysis.”
Bryan Lawson

Bottom-up processing (also called data-based processing) is processing that is based on incoming data. Incomingdata always provide the starting point for perception because without incoming data, there is no perception.
Top-down processing (also called knowledge-based processing) refers to processing that is based on knowledge. Knowledge isn’t always involved in perception but, it often is—sometimes without our even being aware of it.
