This blog has been created to show USB students of Architecture and Urban Planning works after reading a text about Rhythm in Architecture. Students were asked to summarize the content of the text by using a graphic organizer and then writing a paragraph from their graphics to recall information from the text.
The works you'll see here belong to our students of ID2-126 (4 sections) at Universidad Simon Bolivar in Caracas, Venezuela.

Class Discussion:
According to what we have discussed in our class, rhythm is an effect that can be produced by the repetition of colors, elements, shapes, and even differences. After class discussion, our students concluded that rhythm can be found almost everywhere, and here are a couple of examples:
Rhythm in Music
Rhythm in Visual Arts
Rhythm in Painting
Rhythm in Sculpture
Rhythm in Architecture
...and even Rhythm in Nature.
Let's see how our students pictured the text on Rhythm in a graphic form, and how they ended up with a paragraph to summarize the same text...
