Architecture acts as a 'sign' that communicates the collective creativity of human beings. This is part of what distinguishes it from mere buildings. If something is produced to fulfill a human need, we might call that a 'structure'. But if it is consciously and artfully designed in a way that will impact the surrounding built environment, opinion about it changes and it is usually considered as a work of architecture. The question of what is distinctive about architectural design and how knowledge can be communicated is a current issue for educational practice. Not only must architects be educated on the principles of architectural design, but also they must be helped to acquire a critical and reflective attitude to their work. New designs and planning solutions are presented as architects compete for freedom and flexibility in an increasingly pressurized working environment. However, it seems that many practices fail to overcome the challenge of communicating the results of design strategies to clients, to judges in competitions, or planning authorities. Success in these areas is not purely a matter of following a prescribed set of rules, because architectural design fundamentally involves the exercise of intuitive and creative judgment, deploying knowledge in a unique and even 'progressive' way. In the end, the practical and theoretical requirements for architectural design feed into each other. If the knowledge gained about how we perceive and create built form is communicated effectively, then the shaping of our environment will be approached less obliquely and with greater sympathy. Such an enriched approach to architectural resolution can only strengthen public and professional satisfaction with the end product.

😱1 ton of reinforcements at about 1.5m Naira… Make we try dey avoid too many concrete works that are not structural… 🤔 Architectural Strategies for Cost Savings in a High-Cost Materials Market In today's challenging market, where building materials costs are soaring, architects play a crucial role in helping clients navigate cost-effective design solutions. Here are a few ways we can contribute to saving money while maintaining design integrity: 1. **Material Selection:** By carefully selecting materials that offer the best balance of cost, durability, and aesthetics, architects can optimize the budget without compromising quality. 2. **Efficient Design:** Implementing efficient design principles, such as minimizing wasted space and optimizing layouts, can reduce the overall construction footprint and associated material expenses. 3. **Value Engineering:** Collaborating with contractors and engineers to identify opportunities for cost savings without sacrificing performance or design intent is key. Value engineering ensures that every component of the project adds tangible value. 4. **Sustainable Practices:** Incorporating sustainable design features not only reduces long-term operational costs but also often leads to immediate savings through incentives, rebates, and lower utility bills. 5. **Adaptability:** Designing for flexibility and adaptability allows spaces to evolve with changing needs, reducing the need for costly renovations or expansions in the future. In times of economic uncertainty, architects have the expertise to optimize budgets and deliver value-driven designs that meet clients' needs. Let's continue to innovate and collaborate to create cost-effective solutions without compromising on quality or creativity. #Architecture #Design #CostSavings #BuildingMaterials #ValueEngineering #Sustainability #lagosrealestate #lagosdevelopers #lagosproperties

Steps involved in design and construction process, Part 1 1. Visit the Site : Site visit is utmost important to know the scale and surroundings of the project. Practical experience can be best gained when you keep visiting sites. 2. Discuss the Requirements : Discuss the requirements with your client for eg. how many rooms, baths, kitchens, etc. are required. Get a clarity of the client's vision and expectations as you are going to build his/her project. 3. Prepare Concept and rough sketches : Prepare a series of rough sketches showing the general arrangement of rooms and how you are going to do zoning on site. Discuss this with the client thoroughly. It's important that the client approves it before you proceed to the next step. 4. Prepare detailed drawings after approval : Now after discussion, prepare detailed drawings for the client. All floor plans and spaces should be of correct size and shape. 5. Outline the specifications : Prepare a list of materials and room finishes that you are going to use in the project. #architecture #architect #archilovers #architecturestudent #architecturephotography #archdaily #interiors #interiordesign #interiordecor #interior #interiordesigner #decor #design #designer #india Do you know how to work with a client confidently? https://lnkd.in/ew8ndZBD
