Abstract

The purpose of this dissertation is to explore the relationship that may exist between architecture and music. This study has two folds. The first is a focus is on the social and cultural aspects which connect the field of architecture and music. In this, view architecture and music may be understood metaphorically. Focus is based on ‘expression’. The second focus is on the principles of composition that exists between the two fields. This part, mainly focuses on a comparative analysis between the ‘form and structure’ of architecture and music. This, as a result, would create an image that would best express architecture musically.
