The difference between traditional architecture and modern architecture

The difference between traditional architecture and modern architecture is mainly in three aspects:

1, with different functions. Traditional architecture is built for ancient life, while modern architecture is built for modern life. For example, there is no elevator in the traditional building, and the kitchen and bathroom inside are different from the current building.

2. Different structures and materials. Limited by the level of science and technology at that time, traditional buildings basically belonged to masonry structure and wood structure. The structural forms of modern architecture are much richer;

3. Different forms. Architecture is a container and a reflection of life. The political system and customs of each era will leave traces on the form of architecture.
