Concepts
concepts are the foundational ideas or guiding principles that shape and inform a project. They serve as the creative and intellectual framework for a design, connecting abstract ideas to physical form. Architectural concepts help us articulate the purpose, function, and aesthetic direction of a project, and what makes each one unique.
Key Aspects of Concepts in Architecture:
Design Inspiration: Concepts can stem from nature, culture, art, history, or technological innovations.
Problem-Solving: They provide solutions to spatial, structural, or functional challenges.
Narrative or Story: A concept often tells a story or creates an experience for the users.
Unified Vision: It ties together all design decisions, ensuring coherence in the project.
