Greek
Architecture
Greek (800-300 B.C.)
▪ Delicacy of outline, perfected proportions and
refined treatment.
▪ Based the different proportions of their construction
systems on mathematical ratios.
▪ The first manifestation was a wooden structure of
upright posts supporting beams and sloping rafters.
▪ Completed with sophisticated optical corrections for
perspective.
Greek (800-300 B.C.)
▪ Major public buildings were built with limestone and
marble. locks of stone were held in place by bronze
or iron pins set into molten lead.
Phases
Aegean, Hellenic, and Hellenistic
AEGEAN PERIOD
▪ Structures were generally rough and massive.
▪ The capital is ornamented with a square abacus, and
a circular bulbous echinus.
▪ Cyclopean walls: large stones without mortar, on clay
bedding.
▪ Megaron: single-storey dwelling with a central room
and porticoed entrance; columns support roof;
thalamus (bedroom).
Treasury of
Atreus

kings were buried outside the city in
great beehive—or tholos—tombs,
monumental symbols of wealth and
power.

and mural paintings.

▪ From the time of Alexander the Great’s death; Greek
culture was modified by foreign elements.
▪ A diversion from religious building types; civic
structures were also built; later will be an inspiration
for Roman architecture.

and orderly.

the shaft of a column;

system of vaulting, which demonstrated their
sophisticated engineering skills.
