Problem 5: Hierarchy by Articulation

Correct!

Of the two buildings below which is the best example of the use of hierarchy created by articulation or detail??


Adler & Sullivan,
Carson Pirie Scott Store,
Chicago, Il,
(1899-1904)
The Carson Pirie Scott Store is the best example of hierarchy created by articulation or detail because our attention is drawn to the highly ornamented entrance, while the rest of the building is rather plain.
