Images for Idiom

In a linguistic sense, idioms are figures of speech, so i decided to depict a few of these figures of speech. A piece of cake, a drop of a hat, and racing against the clock.

 

" The architect...must be looked upon as something much more than a designer of buildings-lovely, elegant, charming, and efficient though they may be. His greater role is that of being the delineator, the definer, the engraver of the history of his time." - Eugene Raskin, Architecture and people, 1974

In architecture we talked about how idioms are not just speech related, but are physical things as well. For example stonehenge fulfills the qualities of an idiom as well, it is shared, it is passed down through generation and both additive and subtractive.
