Art and Architecture have collectively been used as the historical media of communication and preservation of cultures and values for many civilizations. It is argued that art is an expression of creative human skills and imagination which is usually appreciated for its beauty and emotional power. Architecture on the other hand is perceived to be a component of the art ‘you can walk through’ that specifically embodies the science of designing and superintending of buildings and other similar structures. However, Rome as a republic and as an empire had greatly explored the phenomena of art and architecture in a variety of ways and elaborations. The Roman emperors and private citizens alike have used buildings, sculptures, paintings, and other art forms as propaganda tools to advertise achievements and mold public opinions on issues of interest. This study therefore, explores on the implications of these phenomena through ‘textual’ historical review and analysis directed at providing highlights on the significance and power of art and architecture as sustainable factors of propaganda epitomized by the Imperial Rome. Subsequently, the study elucidates on the legacy of its propaganda techniques that has resonated in the 21st century polity with reinforced technological innovations deployed to sustain culture, political power, and economic development. This is evident in the ongoing global developments as typically exemplified by the Gulf States of the Arab world.

On the basis of experiences in designing, planning and constructing industrial zones in Vietnam, this paper aimed to give some suggestions and regulations for designing. The study used the qualititative method with synthesis and explanatory methods. Resources usage and environmental protection are more effective, while maximal economic and social benefits are simultaneously targeted. A concept of developing eco-industrial parks has established and evolved through time, and planning and constructing industrial zones based on current regulations in the nation. As a result, researches stated that we need to pay attention to network cloud service, big data service and investment management and meet some standards such as 100% of newly built industrial clusters have wastewater treatment stations that meet relevant national standards or technical regulations, etc. as well as certain principles such as 3R (Recycle, Reduce, Reuse). Operation services should include: cloud-based service operation providing basic cloud rental services, such as cloud hosting, cloud desktop, cloud disk, virtual data center, container services, collaborative development and Open API; SaaS Operation Service; APP Store; and space operation service to make full use of digital showrooms and free space resources, providing reservation and rental services, and demonstration services.

Of the many sculptures on the facades of cathedrals and churches all over France, the curious Head-carriers, also known as Cephalophores, are arguably some of the most thought-provoking sculptural pieces one will come across. This study is concerned mainly with the iconography of St Denis, the first Bishop of France, as articulated on the portals of the Basilica of St-Denis. The events that followed immediately after Denis’ martyrdom by decapitation is mostly regarded as mere fable. Consequently, the symbolic meaning of the unusual movement has evaded scholarship. This work will discuss the symbolism of the Head-carriers and the meaning it gives to the architectural space of the Basilica of St Denis. This study argues that the emblematic ideology behind the sublime interaction between the living and the dead in the Basilica of St Denis, epitomised by the statue of the martyr, is a visual representation of a central message in Christianity which presents death, not as the end, but as a transitory and glorious beginning of oneness with Christ. Through critical visual analysis and metaphysical discussions, the study places Gothic art and architecture in the centre of the enunciation of 16th century Christian doctrine.

The invasion of Mongolians was one of Iran's most important events in the history of Iran that was accompanied by full-scale consequences, especially political, social, and artistic aspects that have never left Iranian societies and are still current and ongoing. During these destructive wars that eventually led to the establishment of the Ilkhanate dynasty, countless cultural and artistic changes happened both among the Mongolians and also in Iranian society. With help of researches and library studies, and by taking an analytical look into art and architecture of this era, this study aimed to analyze the important political, religious, cultural, and social elements that affected the shaping of new concepts in architecture and art of the Ilkhanate period. Through these investigations, it was concluded that although various artistic and architectural elements were witnessed in the Ilkhanate period, following the presence of the Mongolians in this period, new artistic genres and schools were shaped alongside a spiritual and different atmosphere that was ruling art and architecture which was different from previous periods in Iran.

Iranian art reflects the spirit and inclinations of Iranians, regardless of place and time of origin. Another point is the diversity of works of art which shows that the ancient Iranians had high skills in different regions. Iranian architecture and painting have always been present side by side and influentially throughout history, and this connection persists until today in contemporary Iranian art. The present article is a research on the features and concepts of architectural and painting styles in contemporary Iranian art and a comparative comparison of these two arts which is centered on the concept of architecture and painting. The contemporary architectural styles and tendencies in question date back to the first and subsequent Pahlavi rule. The general objectives of the research are to apply the styles of painting and architecture in Iranian art to achieve the same conceptualism of these two arts. For this purpose, three main categories have been studied: the first part is contemporary Iranian architecture, the second part is contemporary Iranian painting and the third part is a comparative comparison of contemporary Iranian architectural and painting styles. The present research is an analytical and comparative research and the research method is based on the application of styles and logical reasoning. Documentary and library studies and theories of experts are also the basis of this article.

Changes in the supply-demand relationship depending on eating and drinking, one of the basic needs of human beings, have also induced some transformations in the spatial formation of cafes operating in the food sector. Therefore, it is critical to ensure spatial quality by considering the functional, aesthetic and psychological conditions in the formation of cafe interiors. In this study, which was discussed to contribute to the design approach by supporting the theoretical and practical unity in the discipline of interior architecture, the changes and innovations that the franchising system contributed to the interior design understanding of cafes were analysed. Besides the determination of the components in the interior design for cafes, the study also aims to question the relationship between theoretical knowledge and practice. While the study includes literature analysis and evaluation as a method, it also reveals the analysis of the components that affect the interior shaping for each cafe space. The interior design application projects used to support the theoretical dimension in the research are the cafes of the David People brand that serve with the franchise system in the provinces of Isparta, Konya, Mardin and Eskişehir. The spatial components determined through these cafe interiors, which have similar and different dynamics, were analysed and the findings were discussed. As a result, it is assumed that this study contributes to the designer in the design process to develop a new method and create a design proposal that includes the interior components of the cafes set as the sample area.

Published: 15 June. 2021 ABSTRACT: With the indication of the rapidly aging population, it is imperative that we start planning now for how we will house and care for the senior population in the future. Retirement living providers continue to expand wellness, dining, and recreation options in response to demands for more choices and a healthier lifestyle. Options that emerged at the beginning of the century continue to develop, to provide a healthier place for the elderly. Traditional life-care models of retirement living are being challenged by more flexible entry criteria, and transition to such a community is being handled in new and novel ways. The purpose of this paper is to show that creating a senior-living facility that is integrated sustainably with their natural environments is important because it has a significant impact on improving seniors’ mental health and preventing their dehumanization within institutions. With the shift in the design of senior living facilities in recent years, this paper shows how effective design can bring in positive results in geriatric mental and physical well-being and prevents the dehumanizing feeling that institutional settings often impose. New models of elderly care significantly affect healthcare outcomes, especially through designs highly integrated with nature, sun, and wind. This article will focus on how to improve the connection of indoor spaces with surrounding environment, how to consider the available natural resources in design of senior-living residence while preventing the dehumanization of patients, retaining a fulfilling community for elderly care, and ensuring sustainability.

This paper discusses the artistic forms and ethnic identity of paintings in Nigerian art schools. Artists in Nigeria used diverse forms to represents images that are peculiar to their ethnic groups to achieve a distinctive identity. Data for the study were obtained from paintings of different ethnic groups found in the various regions of the Art schools in Nigeria. The art schools have been the centre for manifestation of indigenous forms in Nigeria. The Schools has been noted with individualism in form depiction that is characterized by elongation of forms, abstraction, semi-realistic with northern architecture. In the South and Eastern part of the country their paintings depict day to day activities using naturalism and symbolic representation of forms. Each region uses indigenous forms to portray ethnic identity and this invariably produced arts and artists that are regional in their practice. The paper concludes that art schools have been the centre for manifestation of indigenous forms and artistic identity among Nigerian Painters.
