A cant in architecture is an angled (oblique-angled) line or surface that cuts off a corner. [1] [2] Something with a cant is canted. Canted façades are a typical of, but not exclusive to, Baroque architecture. The angle breaking the façade is less than a right angle, thus enabling a canted façade to be viewed as, and remain, one composition.
An ICD is the umbrella document over the system interfaces; examples of what these interface specifications should describe include: The inputs and outputs of a single system, documented in individual SIRS (Software Interface Requirements Specifications) and HIRS (Hardware Interface Requirements Specifications) documents, would fall under "The Wikipedia Interface Control Document".
Historically, multiple approaches were suggested to address the reflection of the structure in the appearance of the architectural form. In the 19th-century Germany, Karl Friedrich Schinkel suggested that the structural elements shall remain visible in the forms to create a satisfying feeling of strength and security, [3] while Karl Bötticher as part of his "tectonics" suggested splitting the ...
It shows the major components, their relationships and has a few well chosen labels and text boxes that portray the design philosophies embodied in the architecture. A marketecture is an excellent vehicle for facilitating discussion by stakeholders during design, build, review, and of course the sales process.
Performative architecture is an architecture using digital technologies to challenge the way the built environment is designed. People move – Architecture stops. People desire – space defines. The designer as a spatial programmer collects movements and desires and releases them into the conception of building. (Anderson, 2011) 4
A high-level design document or HLDD adds the necessary details to the current project description to represent a suitable model for building. This document includes a high-level architecture diagram depicting the structure of the system, such as the hardware, database architecture, application architecture (layers), application flow ...
Linearized PDF files (also called "optimized" or "web optimized" PDF files) are constructed in a manner that enables them to be read in a Web browser plugin without waiting for the entire file to download, since all objects required for the first page to display are optimally organized at the start of the file.

Arcology, a portmanteau of "architecture" and "ecology", [2] is a field of creating architectural design principles for very densely populated and ecologically low-impact human habitats.
