Architecture is based around the inspired and effective division or formation of a given space(s). As new materials and technologies became available, architecture has developed and adapted to the new possibilities. One of the key features of modern architecture is the constant use of glass and the development of wider spaces, or providing the illusion of open spaces which make the use of natural light. With the development of dynamic architecture the building can actively change it’s orientation to make the most of it’s surroundings and latural light. Light allows us to percieve our surroundings, without which we would have a different or little unsterstanding of the spaces around us. It also helps create and change moods within these spaces, to relax or intrigue us, or to create illusions of non existant spaces.
