VITRUVIUS defined SIX Fundamental Principles
Symmetry
Arrangement : It is a process of placing all the defined elements in correct functional relationships, never losing sight of overall “elegance of effect”It includes Ground plan, Elevation & Perspective. Today section & detail are added.
EconomyPropriety
Eurythmy : It refers to the harmonious proportionality. Pleasing relationship between length, width & height.
Order : It is a element of a work separately and as a whole. The basis of order is the program, which clearly outline the quantities required & selection of modules from the elements of the work itself.

VITRUVIUS defined SIX Fundamental Principles
Propriety : It is the perfection of form which attained when a building is constructed on the basis of sound principles. For Vitruvius these were symbolic as well as practical.

VITRUVIUS defined SIX Fundamental Principles
Symmetry : It is the achievement of a successful balance among the individual Elements of work & relationship between different parts
Economy : Requires the effective management of materials & the site, maintaining a balance between cost & common sense during the construction process.
Propriety : It is the perfection of form which attained when a building is constructed on the basis of sound principles. For Vitruvius these were symbolic as well as practical.
