Abstract
'Transparency', which has been an important topic of architectural discourse in the recent past, is playing an even greater role in architectural expression nowadays. The purpose of this study is to define the prevailing conceptions about transparency and to discover the various modes of this design effect in architectural space. By using partial or complete of transparency in a structure, designers are able to express themselves more profoundly. The perception between exterior and interior, transformation of day into night and conditions arising from spatial overlapping create an atmosphere which deepens the quickly of architectural design. Transparency can present as void what in reality is solid. Following the period of de-construction, transparency has asserts itself in late part of the century and transparency can be considered synonymous with modernistic and refers to structure that are optically luminant or pleasant in its simplicity. Along with advancement of climate control, construction and design technologies and new material with versatility should combine to even further the diversity of transparency in architectural expression.
