What's interesting about architects is, we always have tried to justify beauty by looking to nature, and arguably, beautiful architecture has always been looking at a model of nature.
My goal is always to bring a sense of balance, symmetry, and proportion to each individual face. The brows are an essential starting point.
Man's striving for order, of which art is but one manifestation, derives from a similar universal tendency throughout the organic world; it is also paralleled by, and perhaps derived from, the striving towards the state of simplest structure in physical systems.
You can't chop down a symmetry
An amino acid residue (other than glycine) has no symmetry elements. The general operation of conversion of one residue of a single chain into a second residue equivalent to the first is accordingly a rotation about an axis accompanied by translation along the axis. Hence the only configurations for a chain compatible with our postulate of equivalence of the residues are helical configurations.
If the chain symmetry is maintained in the crystal lattice, the possible occurrence of different space groups is considerably restricted.
Classical design is a mirror of the human mind. It's how we see the world.
I've always been attracted to classic patterns in architecture, music and drama.
The tripartite structure - so you remember the third brother, second brother, first brother, or the first dervish, second dervish, and third dervish. This is very like embroidering a cloth, as you have to know where you are with the knots.
