Has Architectural Photography Changed the Way Architecture is Perceived Today?

Sanjeev Bumb

Abstract: Architecture has always been at the forefront of advancements of human life over the ages. The constant urge of humans to evolve and better themselves has led to a massive evolution in architecture as well. The world of architecture keeps growing with new ideas, designs, technologies and with that the need to preserve not just the architecture of the past but also document the present for the world to see. We have been documenting buildings in various ways since ancient times but architectural photography is a relatively new phenomenon. Over time this process of photographing has become an important part of the field of architecture, especially today in the world of social media. It not only helps people around the globe gain knowledge while sitting at home, but it has also become a tool for a designer to showcase their thoughts to a much bigger audience and potential clients in an easy manner. The possibilities and the exploration in this field of photography have ultimately paved the way for architecture to be perceived like never before.
