Abstract

Many architectural works convey a kind of eternal monumentality to the audiences through the architects’ ingenious use of space and physical elements. The author explains the definition of architectural monumentality, deeply explore the artistic characteristics of monumental design and its commonly used space elements, and analyze how to create a strong “spiritual field” by means of material shaping so that an emotional resonance can form between the audiences and the space. At the same time, the author analyzes the approaches of space layout and composition elements employed by Oscar Niemeyer in his architecture work in Brasilia, Itamaraty palace (Palácio Itamaraty), to exemplify the discussion on the architectural monumentality in the article, and analyze how the monumental features in architecture serve the building itself.
