What is the development history of ancient buildings? What's the difference between it and modern architecture?

1. Briefly describe the development history of ancient architecture in China. A: Primitive society: There were two main ways of life of human beings in Paleolithic age: natural caves and nesting. The Neolithic age was divided into two basic systems: the southern region developed from nests to dry diaphragm buildings; In the north, it has developed from semi-underground caves to houses with wooden bones and mud walls on the ground; Architecture in Shang and Zhou Dynasties: The basic feature is the use of rammed earth technology. A large number of rammed earth piers and city walls have been found, cities have appeared, urban layout has taken shape, and even quadrangles have appeared. The ancient buildings in China were originally formed by the enclosed courtyard layout of wooden frame and central axis. Architecture in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty: featuring cities and palaces. Buildings in Qin and Han Dynasties: The three basic frame forms commonly used in ancient Chinese wooden frame buildings, such as platform beam, bucket ferry and dry diaphragm, are relatively mature, and the commonly used roofs, such as Queen's Hall, hanging mountain, sloping mountain and building, are widely used; Architecture in the Six Dynasties: the transformation of urban architecture and the prosperity of Buddhist architecture: architecture in Sui and Tang Dynasties: cities, bridges and temples; Architecture in song dynasty: urban architecture broke through the closure and gardens prevailed; Buildings in Liao, Jin and Yuan Dynasties: shifting columns, reducing columns and religious buildings 2 Differences between ancient architecture and modern architecture Modern architecture has become a new era style with its free form, simple modeling, attention to function, economy and rationality, and no decoration or less decoration. Modern architecture is a new type of architecture under the influence of European modern architectural movement and the specific social background and regional environment in China. The ancient architecture in China can be summarized as follows. (1) atmosphere. Reflected on the gate, the big window, the big depth and the big eaves give people a feeling of stretching. A semi-enclosed space is formed under the roof of the big house, which can not only shelter from the sun and rain, but also has a wide field of vision and leads directly to nature. This kind of atmosphere fully embodies the idea of "harmony between man and nature" in China traditional architecture. (2) angry. Reflected in the four corners of the cornice, or flying around, or drifting upright, making the heavy feeling of the building look relaxed and the solidification look moving. If "anger" produces feelings. The purer, the more artistic. The artistry of traditional architectural modeling in China is unmatched by any other nation. However, the traditional western architectural art is not in the building itself, but in the sculpture or painting attached to it-decorative art, which can not bring vitality to the building itself. (3) richness. Reflected in the use of glass materials. He has a long life, bright colors, dazzling in the sun and magnificent in various environments. Its high cost symbolizes wealth and status. It can be seen that the atmosphere, vitality and richness not only have their specific colors, but also have their rich connotations. The combination of these three forms the architectural tradition of China. (4) heavy mountains and rivers. The above three characteristics only refer to the building itself and its environment. If we tolerate the environment, China's architectural tradition has a fourth feature-emphasizing mountains and rivers.
