Romanesque architecture emerged during the early medieval period. The style and architectural uses are influenced by the Byzantine and Christian architecture. The use of Roman arches were incorporated to the buildings, by transforming it into semi-circular arches to decorate window opening. The arches are usually made of bricks to show the new age of the building. Roman domes were not used any more, therefore heavy thick walls were carry by vaults. This lead to the decreasing of lights that would shine in to the building, making it kind of dark inside.
Moreover, the beliefs and religious teachings where place on to how the buildings were basically used. The influence of how the Christian believe in the spaces of teaching and gathering were reflected on to the style. Universities such as University of California Los Angeles also use Romanesque architectural style to express the meaning of educational space. This way, the Romanesque architecture would create a symbolic icon that it is a place for learning.
