There are many architectural features that can draw attention to a building, though architects and designers tend to pay attention to a few specific key principles:
⭐ CONTEXT | The locations and surrounding architectural styles that interact with a site.
⭐ NAVIGATION | Pathways and wayfinding elements that allow users to traverse through space.
⭐ MATERIALS | The materials and finishes that make up a buildings structure and appearance.
⭐ CONNECTION TO EXTERIOR | How the interior and exterior of a space interact with one another.
⭐ ACCESSIBILITY | The routes created and design choices made to ensure a space is accessible to all populations of inhabitants.
