Now compare...........................






An example of a Western architecture and in particularly - roof line.






Any Westerner, would recognise this Shape & Line represents and is symbolic in Western Culture of " Clean - Cut, Grandeur, Status & Wealth. "



What most would tend to wish for;

yet how about " Nature," though ?

does it blend into it ?








The natural line of the landscape, in a Fall or Wintery scene.








A Fall scene of Snow covered vegetation.







How does the Eastern & in particular the Chinese architectural design differ;

in this respect ?




















Now, what if we add in a little natural colour, as well ?
