Summary

edit
Description

Architecture can turn an uninteresting building or even an entire cityscape into an interesting, or at least pleasant one.

The St. Catharines Market Square is essentially a bland warehouse like building. It has a rectangular footprint with a gabled roof. In its basic shape, it resembles an average greenhouse, shed or light industrial building.

However, just the addition of rows of gabled dormer windows on each side of the roof turn this otherwise boring building into an interesting building. Of course, there are other decorative elements to this building, but just this one element (the dormer windows) turn a warehouse into a pleasant public space.


Let there be rows of dormer windows in all of our creations!
