Abstract
Aldo Rossi once classified the architectures in a city as residential buildings and monumental artifacts. The iconic public building naturally has a monumental identity. Therefore, the thesis mainly discusses the approaches to create a monumental meaning for an architecture with perspectives of urban typology and architectural archetype. In a way, the monumental meanings can be conveyed by time, analogy, or a utopian image. The study also includes the critical thinking and evaluation about the aesthetic motif and strategic methods in practical design. The diploma project is a concert hall design in Nanjing, China. According to this particular case, the arguments are developed around the feasibility and sustainability of the concert hall with the background of a contemporary China major city.Description
