dc.description.abstractArchitecture has a duty to inform. Its various elements, by their individual being and creative synthesis into a physical formal and functional structure, are a reflection of a generating idea. In this way architecture becomes symbolic; it represents the ideas of the creator, who may choose to highlight an aspect of the society or part thereof. This has led in the past years to many varied styles of architecture: classical, neo-classical, renaissance, modern, international, post-modernism. Each gives us insight into the era in which it prevailed. These years have been processes of discovery and re-discovery. People and hence architects, are continuously asking questions; probing about their world, their lifestyles, their values, their religions, politics, education, culture and bodies. It has been in all a series of experiments in search for self-discovery and identity. There are multiple examples and precedents, which offers a wide range of points of view, interpretation and architectural styles. This research in reflecting upon the role of the court as a building type shall carefully construct a thesis and design through a deliberate and calibrated use of tectonic language where the message and meaning becomes clearly visible and legible to the public.en_US
