It is believed that Vitruvius established himself as an architect after his tenure with the armed forces. Vitruvius was known to be in charge of a lot of things during his time with the troops, ranging from providing carriages to wood and straw to the military, building bathhouses to digging trenches, and making war machines to bringing water into the encampment. Fields like architecture, military engineering, and public building construction were closely linked together back in the classical era. He was also an architect consultant for Emperor Augustus. He was a firm believer of, ‘Everything can and should be measured.’Īccording to his own accounts, Vitruvius was a military architect and engineer under the reign of Julius Cesar. His ideas pertaining to architecture and society, in general, went on to form the world of buildings as we know it today. Little is known about his childhood but it is believed that he was born in 75 BCE. Fascinatingly, he also served as a civil engineer, an officer in the military, a builder, and an author.
