when designing a large or tall building remember that the wind puts a lot stress on structures. give your buildings aerodynamic shapes to decrease the stress on the structure. another reason to use the fluid style.
mechanics in architecture. add movements and abilities to designs. here is an example of a rotating tower. this is an eye opener and a real land mark.

using shapes. when designing a building, if you want to have an ultra modern look, think about what shapes you want to use. here is an example of using shapes to give a modern look. tip: don't get to fancy. keep it simple. use rectangles and lots of windows to start then use the fluid technique to finalize your building.

symmetrical building. symmetrical building style is an easy way to design a structure. an important part of designing in this way is to make sure your measurements are precise and chose your shapes wisely. if this is a building you are designing, put a lot of room on the inside. don't have tight spaces.

mixing old with new. adding modern art with older stiles can really bring a nice reformation to an old building. a beautiful sight to see and an eye opener.
use landscaping to add to your buildings and improve your design. landscaping can also be matching with your structure to give a good surrounding effect. #thinklandscape

a fluid look in your building will give it a smooth and graceful look. often times this it appealing to an audience. here it an example of fluid design. this airport design combines landscaping with structure design to add a pattern that gives this building the fluid look. to give a structure a fluid look, give it graceful curves and try to avoid sharp edges. adding landscape with patterns that go with your structure will add to the fluid look.
