Rhythm+Architecture

There are many examples of how rhythm is used in architecture in Caracas. For example, we have the faculty of architecture in Universidad Central de Venezuela, where a pattern is created with wood beams to create a walking space. The ceiling is also composed by these beams and it allows light to flow in and illuminate the space. Then we have the Poliedro, where the repetitive pattern appears in the roof, creating a semi-circular space. Lastly, we have the Hospital Universitario de Caracas, where identical semi-circular towers create certain exterior spaces, hence the rhythm throughout its facade.
