HOW AND WHAT DO THEY INFLUENCE?
Design concepts will and should influence the whole
architectural project. Design concept also will have an
effect to items below which are:
Exterior and interior - orientation, massing, form,
apertures, height, light
The landscape - hard and soft surfaces, types of
planting, scale of painting, arrangement of planting
Finishes - colors, styles, textures, materials
Figure 22 : Concepts influence exterior
Fixtures and fittings - genre, style, scale, amount,
material
Structure - light, heavy, traditional, modern, vernacular
Materials - colors, hard or soft, weathering, types,
styles, locally sourced, vernaculars
Each aspect of a project should be derived from and be
driven by a concept; this could be a singular global
conceptual approach for the whole project, or
individual conceptual approaches applied to each
aspect.
