Traditional vs Modern Architecture
Can modern architecture and traditional architecture concur?
Nowadays, traditional ways of performing tasks are fading and very few parts of it still exists, now all types of machinery with the help of technology have been invented to make work easier for human beings. (7Ranchise 2011) Architecture has been divided into many categories to fit our life styles in a particular time at a particular place. (7Ranchise 2011) The main two well-known ways of recognising these are: Modern Architecture and Traditional architecture. Modern architecture is known as the movement of architecture that started in the 20th century, it's also architecture that is characterised by the simplification of subtraction of ornaments, forms. Modern architecture can be some of the most colourful, innovative and futuristic designs ever. (7Ranchise 2011) Modern architecture today can be applied by using so many different type of materials that architects choose to create different effects on buildings. (7Ranchise 2011) on the other hand, traditional architecture is mainly categorised as historical buildings that have a lot of cultural and character included into them and artists were commissioned to put some colour into the building giving each one of an individual effect. But, the question is can modern and traditional architecture coexist? In today's world anything seems possible, an example to support that could be instead of painting beautiful designs on the wall, Wall papers could be used instead as they are easily applied and can easily replaced or removed at anytime. (7Ranchise 2011) The thin line between traditional architecture and modern architecture is that modern architecture explores mainly with the interior features whereas traditional architecture mainly focuses on the exterior features.

Just as every living organism advances from specie to specie, similarly architecture has developed over the years from traditional architecture to modern architecture Modern
