<p>Which is more important to architecture, art or math?
which subject has more to do with it</p>
<p>Both, but architecture leans MUCH MORE on the side of art. However that is certainly not the end of the story because if you asked a lot of architects they might say neither. Thom Mayne wouldn’t agree completely with the idea that architecture is all about “art”. It is almost its own thing in some cases because of its theoretical aspects.</p>
<p>it’s related to both but very different in a way. being a math good student won’t necessarily make you a good architecture student, and neither would being good at art. there are so many facets to architecture that you can approach architecture in many different ways, whether you are more technical, or analytical, etc. </p>
<p>i’d say overall, the best arch students are those who are inquisitive about everything, constantly ask questions, think independently, are extremely creative and can argue critically. as you can see, these traits borrow from both the math and the art.</p>
<p>you’ll find that in architecture school, architecutre has very little to do with the kind of expression you find in art since what you do is often grounded with practical issues. </p>
<p>what it borrows from the art side however is a sense of open minded thinking for ideas in order to solve problems. as you develop your own projects, your ideas have to be very strong and well argued, which usually requres analytical skills and this comes from the math side. and in order to realize your idea, you often have to be technical and very analytical so that you can know how to build it. this is def true in the real world as you always have to figure out how to put the things together. a lot of architecture work especially in the graduate schools these days are based a lot on research and analysis.</p>
<p>the success of the project however is primarily based on your idea, so creativity is also extremely important. as you can see, technical, analytical, and creativity are equally important.</p>
