Design concepts and theories

Design concepts and theories in Architectural Design I encompass the fundamental principles that guide the creation of built environments, such as form, function, proportion, and context. Mastering these concepts is essential for the exam because they form the basis of all design solutions and are repeatedly tested in case‑study and diagram questions.
