This paper requires a significant effort on your part – to be inspired to write about an aspect of architecture that brings you joy!
Major Accomplishments or Influences
Yes, you should discuss major accomplishments and/or influences of this architect. However, you don’t need to limit yourself to buildings – architecture is far more interesting than that – consider literature, stylistic movements, architectural philosophy and impacts on architectural education. You can also zero in on one-minute detail that interests you and expand upon it.
For example: If you like gardens, then research the gardens in and around the buildings; write about garden design during that time.
Another example: If your architect designed furniture, your whole paper can be about his/her furniture design; write about the history of furniture design and how this architect fit into it.
