Symmetry

In architecture, symmetry is the reflection of shared forms, shapes across a central line, continuously used ordering principles in architecture. Symmetry helps bring various elements of a structure together into a single piece. Our brains are always looking for symmetry and something we are drawn to. This is something the Architects have achieved with the Clyde Auditorium AKA the ‘Armadillo’ due to its overlapping, shell-like structure. The design is an exceptional example of symmetry in design, with its leading lines that brings a sense of awe to the thousands of visitors each year.

Matthew Wilkinson is an engineer who works across the UK. As he travels he spends his time photographing the Landscape. His Love for Photography started with 1 session a week whilst in college. After college Matthew when on to shoot 5x4 film for a few years then moved to 35mm full-frame in recent years. Matthew has developed a love for expression and strives to take steps away from reality with various processes & techniques and create more abstract images to provoke thought and emotion from the viewer. This approach to his art enables him to further express himself and tell deeper stories.
