Public Life
When people hear the word "public" in relation to architecture, they think of government-built structures, i.e., tax-funded buildings that provide essential services to citizens.
Examples include buildings such as post offices, police and fire stations, garbage dumps, transportation facilities, city halls and government buildings, and courthouses.
Another representative facility is the legislative body for elected representatives.
We will examine representative public spaces beloved around the world, such as the Colosseum in Rome, Dulles International Airport in the United States, and the London Aquatic Centre in the United Kingdom, as representative architectural structures related to public life.


Monuments
When people think of 'Monuments', they always think of souvenirs, sculptures, etc. for important events or people.
In fact, the word itself comes from the Latin 'monumentum', which reminds people of past achievements and personalities.
The word also connotes buildings that represent great symbols or cultural icons of their time.
The monuments section of this book introduces architectural monuments that remind us of humanism and major historical events, such as the Palace of Versailles in France and the Parthenon in Greece.


Arts and Education
The topic of 'arts and education' is very comprehensive, including art schools and museums, and performance venues can also be included in this category.
In fact, all formal and informal educational facilities, including libraries, universities, schools, and technical colleges, fall into this category.
The Arts and Education section features world-renowned museums (such as the Sir John Soane Museum and the Grand Louvre) as well as dynamically designed post-war concert venues such as the Berliner Philharmoniker.


Residential Living
"Live well!", "Live a life of abundance!", "A good life is the best revenge." In a sense, these proverbs can refer to a luxurious and extravagant lifestyle.
Some of the houses introduced in the residential section have sites, spaces, and views that go beyond the everyday meaning of the word 'shelter'.
But on the other hand, it also features homeless shelters, clinics, and small, modern houses that are built efficiently and inexpensively.
Representative examples of residential buildings include Villa Rotunda, a retirement villa in Vicenza, Italy, and Villa Mairea, a summer vacation villa in Finland.


Worship
When we think of Western religious structures, the cathedral often comes to mind first.
The worship section includes several key examples, including the Gothic Chartres Cathedral in France, the Early Renaissance Cathedral in Florence, the High Renaissance and Baroque St. Peter's Basilica in Rome, and the Baroque and Neoclassical St. Paul's Cathedral in London.
