Architectural fractioning

In photography is to cut an objest in order to make it lose it's qualities (volume) and give the shot a tottaly different reality, making and entirely different composition. In architectural fractioning, different building will react differently depending on the lenses, light, and camera placement. The constructions will be shown from an entirely different perspective, depending on the photographer's choices.
