What are the similarities and differences between architecture and gardens?

Similarity: Architectural modeling is determined according to local climate characteristics and actual conditions.

Difference: China is mostly wood structure, while foreign countries are mostly masonry structure.

The objects of architecture range from comprehensive environmental design, including regional planning, urban planning and landscape design, and related building processes before the formation of the community, to the production of indoor furniture and small objects. And its usual object is a unit in a site.

An effective plan is necessary to successfully complete each construction project. No matter how to design or even complete the whole construction project, we should fully consider the possible environmental impact of the whole construction project, establish the construction schedule, make good financial arrangements, construction safety, transportation and application of building materials, project delay, preparation of bidding documents and so on.

Extended data:

The architecture is mainly wood structure, while the traditional western architecture is mainly masonry structure. Modern buildings are mainly reinforced concrete.

The style is simple and elegant, mainly made of thatch, wood and brick, with wooden frame as structural mode (columns, beams, purlins, rafters and other components), and combined according to the actual size, shape and spacing required by the structure. This architectural structure embodies the clarity, order and stability of the ancient patriarchal social structure.

Because the wooden beams and columns are not easy to form huge internal space, the ancient buildings skillfully use the natural space in other places to form a courtyard.

The mainstream of traditional folk houses in China Han nationality area is regular folk houses, with Beijing quadrangle as a typical representative and symmetrical layout. Beijing quadrangles are divided into front and rear rooms, and the main house system in the middle is the most respected. It is a place to hold family etiquette and receive distinguished guests. Each house faces the courtyard and is connected by a balcony.

Although Beijing Siheyuan is a concrete embodiment of patriarchal clan system in feudal society of China, it is an ideal outdoor living space with wide courtyard, appropriate scale, quiet and friendly, and orderly flowers and trees. Most houses in northeast China are such spacious quadrangles.
