Texture is an important element in artistic architecture because it can add depth, interest, and visual appeal to a building. Texture refers to the surface quality of a material, whether it is rough or smooth, shiny or matte, patterned or plain. It can also affect the way light is reflected off of a building, creating interesting shadows and highlights. Texture can be used to convey a sense of time, history, or culture by using traditional or unique materials, such as stone, brick, or wood. It can be used to enhance the functionality and performance of a building by providing insulation, grip, or soundproofing. Texture can also express the mood and emotion of a building, whether it is comforting, intimidating, or playful. Overall, texture plays a significant role in creating a distinctive and memorable building that resonates with people and the environment.
