No decorative facades hiding poor construction. For instance, when Ruskin presents the design and construction of a Gothic roof, he points out that it would be misleading if ''the intermediate shell were made of wood instead of stone, and whitewashed to look like the rest, This would, of course, be direct deception, and altogether unpardonable…'' Your buildings should be true in how they present themselves.
Truth : Ruskin's lamp of truth is candid and he argued that buildings should be honest. Ruskin writes, ''Do the people need a place to pray, and calls to hear His word? Handcrafted and honest display of materials and structure". Sacrifice : According to Ruskin, buildings and Architecture must be completed so all men can have a holy place to pray to God, and the buildings must adhere to the principles set down by Him. John Ruskin's seven principles of architecture are sacrifice, truth, power, beauty life, memory and obedience.
