Architectonics of embodiment When we see the title of the study we imediately think of embodiment as an essential part of the research. Focusing on "The Architectonics of Embodiment" by Vesely. Since the very beginning is stated that the relation of the body to architecture and the complex phenomenon of corporeality have always had a privileged position within the history of European culture.

According to this components there are distinguished some types of design such as arabesque, which involves intricate linear development with or without representational meaning. In this category there is a subdivision: a) a) Strip design b) b) Bounded-area design c) c) Allover design a) Strip design This design is long and narrow such as ribbons, borders or architectural moulding.
