Proportion plays a critical role in the overall appearance of a building. It refers to the relationship between the various elements of a building, specifically, their size, shape, and placement in relation to each other. If a building has proportional elements, it gives a sense of balance and harmony to the overall structure, making it look more aesthetically pleasing. A well-proportioned building is generally considered more beautiful and visually appealing, whereas a building with poorly proportioned elements can look awkward and unbalanced, making it less attractive. That is why designers and architects pay close attention to proportion when designing buildings.
