Architecture

Architecture is the art of building.Virtually all architecture is concerned with the enclosure of space for human use. The precise activities to be housed in any specific building,ranging from an assembly line in a factory to a living room in a home,should dictate the size and shape of the several areas within.These spaces also must be arranged in some logical relation to each other.Furthermore,the movement of human beings within the building requires halls stairs or elevators whose size is governed by the expected load of traffic.The plan of a structure ,always the first consideration of an architect,is the resolution of these different purposes into an organization of spaces that will fulfill the intent of the building .Good planning guides the visitor to his destination in the structure and impresses him,perhaps subconsciously,by visibly relating the several units of the edifice.Conversely,a bad plan results in inconvenience,waste and visual confusion.
