Architecture: The Only Discipline Without a Universal Definition!
It's true—architecture is more than a single definition and simpler than you might think. It's not just one thing because it involves many connected fields that make it what it is! At its core, architecture aims to create the perfect space for living beings, human or animal.
Architecture is both art and science, blended together in a way that might seem overwhelming—but it's not. For some architects, it means creating a design that feels perfect when you use it. For example, Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater blends beautifully with its natural surroundings. For others, it's about the perfect look, like Zaha Hadid’s Heydar Aliyev Center with its flowing, futuristic design. And for some, it’s about how well it works. The Pompidou Centre in Paris, designed by Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers, shows this with its practical inside-out design.
The best architects combine all these things and more. The Sydney Opera House by Jørn Utzon is a great example—its design is iconic and stunning, it works great for performances, and it fits perfectly into Sydney’s harbor. Read More: Introduction to Architecture
