Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Analyze the historical period and key works associated with Sir Christopher Wren.
Wren is a 17th-century architect famous for rebuilding London after the Great Fire, with St Paul's Cathedral being his primary masterpiece.
This establishes the baseline factual association required by the study guide.
2
Evaluate the descriptions of the other architects mentioned (Hadid, Foster, and Adam).
Zaha Hadid and Norman Foster are contemporary architects, while Robert Adam belongs to the 18th-century neoclassical period.
Identifying the chronological eras helps detect mismatched attributions in the distractors.
3
Cross-reference specific landmarks with their actual designers.
The Cenotaph was designed by Lutyens, the Gherkin by Foster, and neoclassical interiors by Adam.
This confirms that the distractors are using real landmarks but incorrectly pairing them with different architects.
4
Identify the only statement where the architect, the building, and the era are all correctly matched.
The description of Sir Christopher Wren correctly corresponds to St Paul's and the post-1666 period.
Final validation of the correct answer.
