Architecture is more than just buildings - it is life itself taking physical form. It is a creative spirit that reflects the nature of humanity and how we live. Great architecture designs ideal environments for people through the arrangement of space in a way that contains, stimulates, and exalts the individuals within. It conveys a view of what the proper environment for humans should be. Architecture is not just decorating the outside of a box, applying styles as fashion, or doing literal representation. It uses space to create total environments and an idealized world for people to inhabit.

Some of the theories are now certainly outdated and have little interest to a modern builder, but some contain still valid information about important goals of building, notably on the questions of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 .

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

You could be a professional graphic designer and still make mistakes. There is always the possibility of human error. On the other hand if you’re not a designer, the chances of making some common graphic design mistakes are even higher. Because you don’t know what you don’t know. That’s where this blog comes in. To make your job easier and help you create better designs, we have put together a list of common graphic design mistakes that you need to avoid.

1. WHAT IS
ARCHITECTURE?!
Architect Shereen Khashaba
2. Frank Lloyd Wright on
Architecture
What is architecture anyway? Is it the vast collection of the
various buildings which have been built to please the
varying taste of the various lords of mankind? I think not.
No, I know that architecture is life; or at least it is life itself
taking form and therefore it is the truest record of life as it
was lived in the world yesterday, as it is lived today or
ever will be lived. So architecture I know to be a Great
Spirit
Architecture is that great living creative spirit which from
generation to generation, from age to age, proceeds,
persists, creates, according to the nature of man, and his
circumstances as they change. That is really architecture
3. Vincent Scully
Architecture is a continuing dialogue between generations -
which creates an environment across time.
Mies van der Rohe
“Architecture is the will of an epoch translated into
space
Philip Johnson
“All architecture is shelter, all great architecture is the
design of space that contains, cuddles, exalts, or
stimulates
the persons in that space.”
Frank Lloyd Wright
The mother art is architecture. Without an architecture of
our own we have no soul of our own civilization
5. Architecture is not a
Architecture is not simply box of decorating a box
decorated the result
inside and out
it is true that many architects often treat their work as
just applying candy floss to a box, but while this may
occasionally produce what might be called 'good
craft,' it is more usually just bad architecture, and
certainly not good art.
6. Architecture is not
Frank sculpture
Gehry's Guggenheim Museum in Bilbao praised
by morons as 'architectural sculpture'. Glaring
incoherence under the Spanish sun, a beautifully
crafted celebration of disorientation. Also an excellent
example of what architecture is not.
7. Architecture is not representati
architecture does not do literal
representation well unless you simply view
architecture as a signboard. Architecture is
in fact closer to Aristotle's concept of
mimesis: as Wright said: architecture
involves "making human life more natural,
and nature more humane."
The Egyptian Stepped Pyramid at Saqqara. Not a
place where you'd want to live - but of course, this
wasn't a place to live.. This was a place to die, or
at least in which to spend eternity as a corpse.
For thousands of years the Egyptians performed
prodigious feats to celebrate death. They did it
very well.
8. Architecture is not bricks and m
Architecture is often thought
of as just so many
elevations and so many
'architectural features,' but
to think in these terms is to
miss the essence of
architecture.
The stuff with which the
architect works is space -
human space.
9. Architecture is not fashion
You can’t apply anything any
where…
We should only apply things when it
makes sense.
10. Architecture does what no other art can do:
All other art forms recreate some portion of the
world - a single human figure, or a two-
dimensional scene on a canvas.
Only architecture can create a total
environment, one that literally surrounds the
viewer.
Architecture creates a man-made, idealized
world - an environment created by the architect
to fit the kind of life he sees as proper to man.
Architecture conveys a view of man indirectly,
not by projecting an image of man himself [as
sculpture, painting and literature do] but by
projecting a proper environment for man to live

As big, eye-catching Olympics
architecture goes, nothing may be as
sustainable as the Water Cube.
Adopting an ETFE pneumatic die
cushion structure, the Water Cube is the
world's largest membrane structure
building.
The 100,000 square meters of the Teflon-
like translucent plastic ETFE that make
up the building's bubble cladding allow
in more solar heat than glass, making it
easier to heat the building, which cuts
energy costs by up to 30 percent. That's
especially important for a swimming
pool, which requires an enormous
amount of heating.
Besides the solar energy, all backwash
water of the center is filtered and
17. The central element and heart of the
design is the generous atrium, flooded
by
daylight, which, on the ground floor,
gives
passers-by the opportunity to get to
know
the company better while browsing in
the shop stocked with Unilever products,
sitting in the cafe or relaxing in the spa.
The atrium is also the central location
for people to meet and communicate.

22. SYDNEY OPERA HOUSE
The Sydney Opera House is a masterpiece of late modern architecture and an iconic
building of the 20th century. It is admired internationally and treasured by the people of
Australia. Created by an architect who had been an avid sailor and understood the sea,
the Sydney Opera House inhabits the world-famous maritime location on Sydney Harbour
with such grace that it appears that the building belongs there naturally. The massive
concrete sculptural shells that form the Sydney Opera House’s roof appear like billowing
sails filled by the sea winds with the sunlight and cloud shadows playing across their
shining white surfaces.
The Sydney Opera House is unique as a great building of the world that functions as a
world-class performing arts centre, a great urban sculpture and a public venue for
community activities and tourism. This monumental building has become a symbol
of its city and the Australian nation.
