Architecture

Architecture has many concepts, but in short, it is:
The art of creating defined spaces for human and non-human functions and activities.

There are many foundations for successful design,
but the most important is the proper connection between functions,
in other words, the relationship between spaces.

Key design criteria include:

• Fulfilling the needs of the space user.
• Ensuring proper spatial relationships.
• Efficient use of space.
• Flexibility for future additions and modifications.
• Meeting the intended purpose of the design.
• Harmonizing design, colors, materials, and specifications with function.
• Providing natural lighting and ventilation.
• Respecting architectural identity and style.
• Achieving sustainability in materials and energy.
• Delivering quality within time and cost.
• Complying with safety and security standards.

There are many more criteria—each with its own depth and details.
