Ictinus

 

Ancient Greek architect of the second half of the fifth century B.C.

Ictinus built the Parthenon with Callicrates (447–438 B.C.). Ictinus also built the Odeon of Pericles in Athens; the temple of Apollo in Bassae (c. 430 B.C.), which first used the Corinthian capital and order as an element of tectonic decor; and the Teles-trion in Eleusis (430’s B.C.; completed in the late fifth century B.C. in altered form). Ictinus made innovative use of the traditional means of architectural orders to create new forms. His architecture is marked by plasticity and an organic fusion of Doric and Ionic forms.
