 In the Art of Architecture sections, the exhibit explains the physical appearance of different buildings, going through their shape, decoration, and features. Over the years, buildings have changed dramatically from simple wooden huts, to large Gothic style structures made of stone, to skyscrapers made of steel and glass. Different locations can also influence the art of buildings, like in ancient Greece with the Acropolis made of stone, to modern day America with the huge cities of skyscrapers. The appearance of different buildings can also influence how important a building might be, like Big Ben and Buckingham Palace in London. They can make people feel differently when looking at those buildings and convey as sense of importance to each. <br>
 In the Different Examples of Buildings, the exhibit goes through different styles of buildings, ranging from old cathedrals to modern day homes, ancient Japanese temples to old fort during Britain's Empire, and even a model of Britain's first middle school. All these buildings come from different backgrounds and have different purposes for each. It's amazing to see how far humanity has come when it comes to different buildings and how evolution has helped in creating the best buildings for the best purposes. <br><gallery>
