Performative Architecture | A Measurable Means Of Evaluating Formal Systems, Garrett Marini
Architecture Senior Theses
The Gothic, Baroque, and Rococo architectural styles relied on perception and an underlying adherence to classical formulas to provide merit and deem an architecture valid.

Henry Russell Hitchcock describes this latter episodic phase of building as exhibiting an eclecticism of style, where features of different styles are used together on a single building like those in the Beaux- Arts tradition.
