3. Proportion of openings within the facade. The relationship of width to height of windows and doors.

4. Rhythm of solids to voids in front facade. Rhythm being an ordered recurrent alternation of strong and weak elements. Moving past an individual building, one experiences a rhythm of masses to openings.

5. Rhythm of spacing of buildings on streets. Moving past a sequence of buildings, one experiences a rhythm of recurrent building masses to spaces between them.

RHYTHM 4-1-4-1-4

6. Rhythm of entrance and/or porch projections. The relationships of entrances to sidewalks. Moving past a sequence of structures, one experiences a rhythm of entrances or porch projections at an intimate scale.

RHYTHM 1-3-1-3-1
