Vitruvius said that all works should fullfill these standards. Leone Battista Alberti elaborated on the ideas of Vitruvius in his treatise. De Re Aedificatoria invisioned beauty primarily as a matter of proportion, but ornament also played a part in great pieces of work. For Alberti the rules of proportion were those that included the perfect human figure which was known as the Golden Mean.The notion of style in the arts was not developed until the 16th century, with the writings of Vasari. The treatises, by the 18th century, had been translated into Italian, French, Spanish and English. In the early 19th century Augustus Welby Northmore Pugin wrote about Gothic Architecture, which he believed was the only real Christian form of architecture. Architecture was first started on needs and means. This is what led to the form of Vernacular architecture, which is most of the modern homes we see today. <span style="font-size: 110%; font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;">Islamic architecture began in the 7th century, developing from the architectural forms of the ancient Middle East but developing features to suit the religious and social needs of society back then. Examples can be found throughout the Middle East, North Africa and Spain, and were to become a significant stylistic influence on European architecture during the Medieval period. In Europe during the Medieval period guilds were formed by craftsmen to organize their trade and written contracts have survived, particularly with ecclesiastical buildings. Over time the complexity of buildings and their types increased. General civil construction such as roads and bridges began to be built. Many new building types such as schools, hospitals, and recreational facilities emerged. The renasaince era focused more on individuals, then religion, this started a new era. Buildings were ascribed to specific architects such as; Brunelleschi, Alberti, Michelangelo, and Palladio. There was no dividing line between artist, architects, and engineers. During this time many new types of architecture were formed such as; neo gothic and Scottish baronial styles. After World War One a new form of architecture was coming to life, it was called modernism. Modernism focused on beauty and was mainly focussed at he middle working class people. Today the two most popular forms of architecture are modern and postmodern architecture. One of the most famous and well known architects of our time is Frank Lloyd Wright.
