There does not however need to be one singular idea, a building or structure can have many different concepts that guide its individual parts to form the whole. INTRODUCTION A concept is a way of generating and justifying design decisions that are almost always a combination of: § Site and Context § User’s Requirements PURPOSE OF A CONCEPT ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN 1 Architectural design decisions are shaped and defined via their concepts and for this reason architecture is strongly judged on their strength. Generally speaking, a weak piece of architecture is a result of an ill-conceived and developed concept. PURPOSE OF A CONCEPT Its purpose is therefore to provide clarity and a framework to the design process and presentation of a building. § A concept however does not have to be a singular “big idea”, but can also be a series of smaller conceptual scenarios, that could be based on organization, materiality or structure for example. § These drive the project forward and are referred to throughout the process and used to help answer questions and make decisions. PURPOSE OF A CONCEPT A design concept therefore no matter how large or small is the catalyst for a projects inception and development, its purpose is to represent the heart and core of the scheme by providing the answers and explanations to the questions asked of it. DESIGN CONCEPT STATEMENT ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN 1 § A design concept statement is the essence of an architectural design proposal. § The design concept statement lays the groundwork for the visual components of the presentation. § Never assume that your design can speak for itself! WHAT IS A DESIGN CONCEPT STATEMENT? A design concept statement must effectively convey your inspiration and vision for a space. § It briefly addresses how you went about creating the design and handled specific design challenges. The statement should also articulate the space or room’s overall ambiance. § It tells your client the origin of the design and demonstrates your ability to create a symbiotic relationship between physical elements. Think of you design concept statement as a mission statement or the “Eureka” moment of the project. WRITING A DESIGN CONCEPT STATEMENT § Each designer has their own way of composing and formatting an architectural design concept statement. § Just make sure you include a few essential pieces of information. You will become more confident in your ability, as you do more proposals. WHERE TO START? DESIGN CONCEPT STATEMENT  You cannot begin to generate a concept until you understand the project’s brief, site and context, and so this should be your first point of call and the starting point to gathering all of the projects required parameters. This includes site analysis, design brief appraisal, building typology appraisal, archetype appraisal, precedent studies and so on. DESIGN CONCEPT: WHERE TO START? A.THE DESIGN BRIEF § Whether your project is real or required to be perceived to be, there will always be a design brief that will provide the vital details on the clients and buildings requirements, along with the site your architectural proposal will need to be placed within. § The type of building and its desired accommodation the design brief asks for, will help to identify initial avenues of research and the key principles that will be important to a building of its type. DESIGN CONCEPT: WHERE TO START? A.THE DESIGN BRIEF § Following this the brief will indicate the program size, the projects priorities, its restrictions and allow for it to be approximately mapped out to get an idea of its scale on the site. DESIGN 1 FINAL PLATE: ONE-STOREY HOUSE DESIGN BRIEF: A young couple who both work from home--an IT Specialist and an Account Analyst, would like to live modestly and decided to build their house in Antipolo.

B.THE SITE AND CONTEXT § The site parameters can be used to discover the limits, restrictions, and opportunities that can add depth and meaning to your conceptual approach. § These first steps are almost always a series of explorations and research that will bring to light conflicting aesthetically, organizational, technical, social or contextual criteria, that can be used as ingredients for further analysis and development. § For your concept to be as successful as possible, its make up needs to consist of and resolve as much of this criteria as possible, whilst addressing the key elements of the brief.  CONTEXT AND FORM: SITE ANALYSIS § To achieve a successful design, site analysis is a must & should be done carefully § Site Analysis involves taking an inventory of site elements and analyzing these factors relative to the clients needs & aims § Gather relevant information about the properties of the site, from topography to climate to wind pattern and vegetation (attributes) § Analyze these features and incorporate them into the design-- basis of architectural form may be from different site parameters: sun, wind, view, topography  City View 20.00 M SITE 50.00 M (Total Lot Area) 50.00 M Residential 1000.00 sqm.

DESIGN CONCEPT STATEMENT HOW TO WRITE A DESIGN CONCEPT STATEMENT? § Keep it simple. First, state the intent of your design and then explain how you accomplished your objective. Example: The design is to take advantage of the home’s classic architecture, bring in additional natural light and utilize a combination of vintage and contemporary furnishings and accessories. You can elaborate on your selection of specific design elements and the principles employed when covering the visual presentation portion of your proposal. HOW TO WRITE A DESIGN CONCEPT STATEMENT? § Address Client Requests. Sometimes you may need to adjust your design concept statement to conform to client guidelines. You may have a killer design and spot on concept statement, but don’t forget to follow special client instructions. Often times a client will have input which greatly influences your design direction and concept statement. If your client has a specific vision in mind and wants a lengthy account of the design concept, follow their wishes and instructions to the letter. HOW TO WRITE A DESIGN CONCEPT STATEMENT? § Things to Avoid. Avoid using overly descriptive and flowery language. Even common adjectives such as “beautiful” and “marvelous” are ambiguous and do not aptly describe the look or feeling of an interior space. Avoid long, drawn out statements. Use short sentences for your design concept statement. As with any proposal writing, long sentences dilute the effectiveness of your core concept. Brief statements are much more impactful and will hold your audience’s attention. HOW TO WRITE A DESIGN CONCEPT STATEMENT? § Things to Avoid. Avoid being egocentric. Do not write your design concept statement in first person. Your personal opinions and desires are not relevant to this piece of information. A design idea, vision or solution should not be about you. It should reflect what works best for your client. HOW TO WRITE A DESIGN CONCEPT STATEMENT? § Helpful Resources. If you are unsure of your ability to write a compelling design concept statement, ask your mentor to help you with your first few design concept statements. The Internet and local library are also great sources of information for architectural design writing. REFERENCES: ¢ Graphic Thinking for Architects & Designers, 3rd Edition by Paul Laseau ¢ Space Planning Basics, 3rd Edition by Mark Karlen
