Roman architecture differed from Greek architecture primarily in its use of concrete and the development of the arch, vault, and dome, which allowed for more innovative and larger structures. While Greek architecture emphasized proportion, harmony, and the use of columns in three classical orders (Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian), Romans incorporated these elements but also focused on functionality and grandeur, evident in structures like the Colosseum and aqueducts. Additionally, Roman buildings often featured extensive use of decorative elements and grand public spaces, reflecting their emphasis on civic pride and public life.
