Architecture is defined as both the process and product of planning, designing, and construction of buildings and other physical structures. It involves the art and science of designing and erecting buildings. Historical civilizations are often known for their surviving architectural achievements, which are also often seen as cultural symbols and works of art. Architecture aims for durability, utility, and beauty in its structures.

Some of the theories are now certainly outdated and have little interest to a modern builder, but some contain still valid information about important goals of building, notably on the questions of functionality, construction, economy and ecology. While theory of design is intended to help design, it does not necessarily precede design. On the contrary, the first building where a new architectural style is exposed, is usually created intuitively, without the help of any theory, just by the skill of a brilliant architect. The design theory comes a little later, and even less brilliant architects can then base their work on it.
Theories can be seen as building-specific branches of the general goal-specific theories which pertain to all types of products and are listed in Paradigms Of Design Theory. Thematic or "analytic" theories are treatises which aim at the fulfilment of one principal goal of architecture. Theories of architectural synthesis are examples of theories which aim at fulfilling simultaneously several goals, usually all the goals that are known.
In present day, the design theory of architecture includes all that is presented in the handbooks of architects: legislation, norms and standards of building. All of them are intended to aid the work of the architect and improve its product -- the quality of buildings technology and production in general: proven theory helps designers to do their work better and more effectively. It occasionally even helps to do things that were believed to be impossible earlier on. As an old saying goes, there is nothing more practical than a good theory. The aesthetization of utilitarian ideas is the primacy of architecture as a vessel of life, accommodating the needs of human beings .
Introduction to Architectural Profession.pptDrSmritiAshok1
This Power Point presentation is based on the lecture delivered to the students of Bachelor of Architecture in the Department of Architecture and Planning. This introduces the term “Architecture” Architects, the Role of Architect, Profession of Architecture , Social Responsibility of Architects, Duties and Liability of Architects with reference to Clients, Contract Documents and Statutory Bodies.
Architect’s Duties and Liabilities are as under.
What is Architecture?
Art and Science of Designing and Creating Buildings
Profession of designing buildings, open spaces, communities and other physical structures
Architecture is both process and product of planning, designing , constructing building and other physical structures.
General term used to describe
building and other physical structures
Style and design and method of construction of buildings
Knowledge of art. Science and humanities
Design activities of an Architect from micro to macro level
Architecture, the art and technique of designing and building, as distinguished from the skills associated with construction.
The practice of architecture is employed to fulfill both practical and expressive requirements, and thus it serves both utilitarian and aesthetic ends.
Architectural works, in the material form of buildings, are often perceived as cultural symbols and as works of art.
What is the purpose of architecture?
The purpose of Architecture is to improve human life.
Create timeless, free, joyous spaces for all activities in life.
The infinite variety of these spaces can be as varied as life itself and they must be as sensible as nature in deriving from a main idea and flowering into a beautiful entity.
Who is an Architect?
An architect is a person who plans, designs and oversees the construction of buildings.
To practice architecture means to provide services in connection with the design of buildings and the space within the site surrounding the buildings that have human occupancy or use as their principal purpose.
The Person is registered,licensed otherwise authorized to use the title of Architect and practice Architecture.
He/She Should have adequate knowledge to originate, design and plan to arrange and supervise construction of buildings.
Thus role of Architects extends from Technical knowledge to business management
Architect’s Profession: Duties and Liabilities
1. With The Clients: Contract for Professional Service entered with the client. The contents of the contract are:
Responsibilities
Remuneration
Copy right
Mode of payment Fees
Dispute Resolution
Termination of Contract.
In large works, employment of professionally capable consultants are preferred. There could be various sets of consultants under the main consultants for planning and design in main work, service and Construction management proper coordination among these professionals are required.
2. Contract Documents: The contract documents are between the Clients and the contractors
High-tech architecture, also known as Late Modernism or Structural Expressionism, is an architectural style that emerged in the 1970s, incorporating elements of high-tech industry and technology into building design.
High-tech architecture appeared as a revamped modernism , an extension of those previous ideas helped by even more technological advances.
This category serves as a bridge between modernism and post-modernism ; there remain gray areas as to where one category ends and the other begins. In the 1980s, high-tech architecture became more difficult to distinguish from post-modern architecture. Some of its ideas were later absorbed into the style of Neo-Futurism art and architectural movement.
BSRIA's Peter Tse gave a presentation as part of RICS Skills programme. Peter covers the minimum requirements for specifications as well as the common approaches.

Architecture (Latin architectura, from the Greek ἀρχιτέκτων architekton "architect", from ἀρχι- "chief" and τέκτων "creator") is both the process and the product of planning, designing, and constructing buildings or other structures.
The art of building in which human requirements and construction materials are related so as to furnish practical use as well as an aesthetic solution, thus differing from the pure utility of engineering construction
As an art, architecture is essentially abstract and representational and involves the manipulation of the relationships of spaces, volumes, planes, masses, and voids.
Paper is an attempt to look at the synergy between art and architecture and showcase how ar has been lveraged to make architecture objective and functional
Art and architecture are getting divorced despite the fact, there exists thin line to differentiate between art and architecture. If Art is labelled as,’ expression of human creative skill/imagination in visual form, Architecture ,is defined as art and science of creating buildings based on utility ,strength and beauty. If a great piece of art is an object of joy and pleasure, a well designed and constructed building brings joy and happiness for the owner, community and user .As a creative science Art has leveraged architecture in numerous ways giving architecture a new theme, meaning and vocabulary. Chandigarh, a role model in the field of architecture and urban planning, designed by Mon Le-Corbusier and his team of great architects, have made extensive use of art as integral part of the designing various buildings including buildings in Capitol Complex, High Court, Assembly, College of Art and Architecture etc to promote their aesthetics and beauty. If architecture is called the body, art rightly assumes the role of soul. Majority of problems facing the profession of architecture has genesis in growing mismatch between art and architecture. The existing ideology of architectural education and practice needs to be, revisited
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
