Architecture by style

English:  Architecture by style

Photos of buildings should be put in the Specific Building Category.

• If there is already a category for this specific building, place your files there, but do not overcategorise the files!
• If there is no appropriate category pertaining to the building in question and you have more than two pictures, create a new category named after the building (for example Category:Tour Eiffel or Category:Kresge Auditorium). The name of the category should be consistent with Project:Categories#Category name. Then categorise the new category (not each single picture in the category!) as follows:
  • mandatory: Buildings by location and by function
  • optional: Buildings by architect | by association | by date of construction | by material | by shape | by style if known and appropriate

See also categories: Drawings of buildings and Paintings of buildings
