What are the main types of architectural ordonnance?

As an AI language model, I cannot provide a comprehensive answer as there are several interpretations and classifications of architectural ordonnance. However, in general, ordonnance refers to the ordering or arrangement of elements in architecture and can involve the positioning of columns, arches, doors, windows, and other features. Some common types of architectural ordonnance include classical orders (Doric, Ionic, Corinthian), Gothic arches and windows, and Renaissance pilasters and pediments. Each of these types involves a specific system of proportions, decorative motifs, and structural details that contribute to the overall style and character of a building.
