ARCHITECTURE
Architecture is a process of designing and constructing buildings. The creative process may be viewed in terms of a triangle which has 3 points: Reality, Concept, and Model. The design process may flow in a direction moving through the phase of a concept or an idea, towsards a plan or a model, and ultimately (if built) a real structure.
Architects have as their primary object providing for the spatial and shelter needs of people in groups of some kind (families, schools, churches, businesses, etc.) by the creative organisation of materials and components in a land- or city-scape, dealing with mass, space, form, volume, texture, structure, light, shadow, materials, program, and pragmatic elements such as cost, construction limitations and technology, to achieve an end which is functional, economical, practical and often with artistic and aesthetic aspects. This distinguishes architecture from engineering design, which has as its primary object the creative manipulation of materials and forms using mathematical and scientific principles.
