What is Architectural Systems , Different point of view on architecture, FORM SEEKING GEOMETRICAL ORDER AND EXPRESSION OF FORMAL QUALITIES, MATERIALIZATION: SEEKING ADEQUATE PERFORMANCE AND EXPRESSION OF MATERIAL ELEMENTS

Meaning of Form - Properties of Form - Shape - Primary Shapes: Circle, Triangle, and Square - Primary Solids - Regular and Irregular Forms - Transformation of Form Subtractive and Additive Forms

Formal collisions of geometry forms when two forms differing in geometry or orientation , articulation of forms and corners (extended , rounded, articulated corners)

Circulation elements
The building approach ( the distance view )
The building entrance(from outside to inside)
Configuration of path the sequence of space
Path & space relations ship edges , nodes and termination of path
Form of the circulation space corridor , balconies , galleries , stairs , rooms

Principles of architecture
Scale and Proportion system (Golden Ratio 1.618)
Axis , symmetry , hierarchy , rhythm , datum and transformation

Interdependence of form , function , space and structure (materialization) THE STRUCTURE THE STRUCTURE 1. Structural Requirements
