While some architects strive desperately to be unique, some architects are looking to update well loved, older styles of homes and architecture. This new style is generally referred to as ‘neo’ which literally translates to ‘new’ in English. Therefore, whenever you come across architecture with the word ‘neo’ placed in front of it, it generally references an updated or modernized version.
Here's a short list of freely available video and film production applications that serve as very effective substitutes for commercial packages costing hundreds or thousands of dollars. They range from screenwriting and pre-production to visual effects compositing to nitty-gritty video processing. And while they may not be as pretty or user friendly as the big names, but they get the job done.
While the pithouse has been easily identified as one of the first permanent dwellings to be designed by indigenous architects, it was soon supplanted by another unique structure. Beginning around 700-750 A.D., the Anasazi of the Four Corners region (Utah, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico) developed a radically different form of home construction employing a mortar consisting of straw mixed with sun baked mud. This mortar (adobe) was used to construct the outer façade of Anasazi dwellings and proved to be a more effective shelter than the semi-underground pithouse had been. Gradually, these structures evolved from single room units to multi-roomed, and even multi-storied, compounds. One such example would be the Pueblo Bonito of Chaco Canyon in present day New Mexico; a five story building made up of over 800 inhabitable rooms.

The top sight to see in the lovely Swiss city Sankt Gallen (Saint-Gall in French) is the Baroque monastery complex with its magnificent Rococo library and impressive cathedral. The former Benedictine monastery of St Gallen has Carolingian roots but visitors come to see the Baroque convent built during the mid-eighteenth century. The highlight is the library, which apart from the important historical documents in its collection, is beautifully decorated in a typical south German Rococo style. The former abbey church, now a cathedral, is also a splendid example of Baroque architecture in Switzerland.
