Extended data:

The monomer of ancient buildings in China can be roughly divided into three parts: foundation, roof and roof. All important buildings are built on pedestals, which are usually one floor. Large halls, such as the Hall of Supreme Harmony in the Forbidden City in Beijing in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, are built on tall triple bases.

The plane forms of single buildings are mostly rectangular, square, hexagonal, octagonal and round. These different plane forms play an important role in the facade image of the building. Because of the wooden frame structure, the treatment of the house is very flexible, and the door and window column walls are often treated and decorated according to different materials and parts, which greatly enriches the image of the house.

The roof forms of ancient buildings in China are rich and colorful. As early as the Han dynasty, there were several basic forms, such as fairy hall, inclined mountain, hanging mountain, pier top, sharp point, and double eaves. Later, various forms such as hook, single slope top, cross slope top, tank top, arch ticket top and vault appeared. In order to protect the wooden frame, the roof often adopts large eaves.

However, the eaves block the lighting, and the rainwater on the roof is easy to wash away the foundation. So later, the curved roof or roof was lifted and the corner was tilted, so the roof and corner were lighter and more lively.
