There is a lot that is often not appreciated when it comes to good architecture! We’re sharing the 4 reasons why good architecture is important and worth it!

How do you keep your principles in mind while designing, but still maintaining the good architecture you’re known for?

Have you ever thought – sat down and really thought – about what makes the best buildings the best?

Good architecture is often overlooked by the general public, and we don’t often think about the elements that make it good. To us, sometimes it’s just another building.

However, good architecture enhances our daily lives in ways that we wouldn’t necessarily predict or expect. The best buildings are ones that enhance productivity and boost profits.

Put more simply, the good architecture enhances the space.

Curious about how?

Read on for some food for thought.

Economics

The best architecture design is one that won’t cost much but will still continue to drive economic flow.

This goes beyond aesthetic design. If you’re designing a building for a business, you’ll want to take into account traffic flow.

Where will the building be located? What’s the business’ goal? What kind of traffic will they be getting? What will help drive that traffic and increase profits?

Even unexpected things, such as the type of traffic and their movement patterns need to be taken into account. Are they walking? Are they driving?

You also have to keep safety in mind when designing a building. This goes beyond government regulations. One of the elements of good architecture is designing a space that can house clients comfortably and safely. 

The most amazing architecture can accomplish this in a small, old space, breathing life into a once-downtrodden building and giving it that economic boost it needs.

Quality of life

You know the saying, “You look good, you feel good.”

Did you ever think that the same thing could apply to buildings?

It’s really not such a far reach. Are you going to be proud of your space if it’s just four walls and a door?

Imagine it. No design intricacies, nothing to add interest to it. Your exterior is four white walls and a door. 

Not very appealing, is it?

Architects add art, creativity, and beauty to our day lives in ways we don’t expect. They know how to design your favorite little alcove or how to give your building the best view.

In fact, studies show that areas with good architecture and design create stronger communities with healthier neighborhoods and businesses.

Balance

Good architecture will fill your space with a sense of balance.

Designing a building isn’t easy.  

As the architect, you need to to make sure the building’s flow makes sense. They need to make sure your building is easy to move around in.

Beyond the building itself, architecture and design can help bring balance to people’s lives. Referring back to the RIBA report, good design makes people’s lives more efficient.

Well-designed hospitals ensure that patients are treated quickly. Well-designed schools create better learning environments. Workplaces with good architecture experience higher productivity.

All of this contributes to a healthy balance of day to day life and work-life balance.

Good architecture = progress

Architecture lets our surroundings progress in a way that we can’t force ourselves.

Without clever new design innovations, we’d be stuck with the same huts and clay houses we lived in centuries ago!

Good architecture progresses with the times and encourages us to adopt healthier, more efficient habits. 

Conclusion

It may seem as though the general public doesn’t give architects enough credit.

As the designer, take some time out and think about what the buildings around you are trying to accomplish.

Do they succeed in those goals?

How would your life be different if they didn’t?

An architect’s job isn’t exactly easy. There’s a lot to take into account and a lot of pressure.

However, the job isn’t thankless. Reach out and harness the innovative spark and creative spirit that enhances our environments and lives.
