⚜️Exploring Architectural Design Ideas: Views and Public/Private⚜️
Expanding on our previous topics of 21 architectural design concepts, we will now explore two additional ideas in more detail: Views and Public/Private.

♦️️Views
Maximizing Your Building's Potential Using Site Views can be a powerful tool in shaping your building's design.
Identifying key areas to take advantage of these views is essential, while also considering utilitarian areas that should be set aside.
But what if your site doesn't offer any views? In such cases, internal views must be created as a starting point for building concept.
On the other hand, where views do exist, you can draw site lines out and across your site to create a lattice-like diagram.
This can lead to the grid concept or further exploration.
Finally, consider developing a concept that focuses on how and where the views are revealed, and how your building can open up to them. This will make your building design even more compelling.

♦️️Public/Private
Establishing Areas in Building Design by Conducting a thorough site analysis is crucial to determine the location of public and private spaces.
The building type and context are significant factors to consider when establishing this concept.
In an urban setting, private spaces may require full detachment from their surroundings to create a distinct micro-environment.
Conversely, in rural environments, private spaces may maintain a strong connection to their surroundings while still being separated from public areas.
By establishing this early on, it can become a powerful driving force for your project.

⚜️Exploring Architectural Design ideas: A Focus on Historic, Physical Features, and Form & Volume

As a follow-up to our previous topics on 21 architectural design concepts, let's take a closer look at three main ideas: Historic, Physical Features, and Form & Volume.

💢 Historical
The historical research of your site and its surrounding context can reveal many avenues for exploration. Every site has a unique history and story to tell, which can provide insight into how to modernize past construction techniques or how to master plan a new housing project based on the town's original plan.
By connecting with past influences and methods, you can significantly strengthen your conceptual approach.

💢Physical Features
Physical features typically denote natural or artificial attributes of a site, including water bodies, trees, vegetation, rock formations, manmade structures, and other similar elements.

💢Form & Volume.
Starting with a basic form and volume analysis may be beneficial. This will allow you to experiment with and explore ways to control positive and negative spaces.

⚜️Exploring Architectural Design Ideas: Geography and Vernacular⚜️

Following to our previous topic on 21 architectural design concepts, let's dive deeper into two of these ideas – geography and vernacular.

♦️Geography
Utilizing Site Geography in Building Design
A building's location can inspire a range of design concepts, from how it interacts with the environment around it (shelter / exposure) to its structural approach (cantilevering / subterranean).
Consider elements such as its exposure to the elements, the level of privacy desired (public / private), and how it integrates with the surrounding features (views / features).
For instance, a steep site requires a robust structural plan from the beginning, while a flat site may benefit from addressing its exposure and how the building interacts with its cardinal directions.

♦️Vernacular
It's important to consider the context of a building before undertaking its design. If your location has a distinct vernacular, use it to your advantage by analyzing the site.
During the conceptual development stage, a strong pitched roof typology can serve as a model for adapting and pushing its form forward.

✨Developing a Strong Architectural Concept! ✨

Factors to Consider and Resources to Help Architecture is a complex and multifaceted discipline, and finding a good concept requires careful consideration of cultural, environmental, functional, and aesthetic factors. If you're on the lookout for a strong architectural concept, reading our upcoming blogs on the subject can provide a solid starting point.

But before we dive into the 21 creative concept ideas, let's take a moment to consider the importance of reading in your creative process.

Here is a comprehensive, step-by-step guide to help you integrate reading into your workflow.

✨Understand the Context:
Consider the physical and cultural context of a site, including climate, building traditions, local materials, urban fabric, social, and historical context.

✨Study the Brief:
Understanding client requirements involves considering specific functions, desired aesthetic, budgetary constraints, and more.

✨Consider Beyond Architecture:
Architectural concepts can also be derived from various fields, including philosophy, art, science, literature, or nature.
