1. Form , Function, and Materialization
1.1. What we have learned about form, function, and materialization.
1.1.1. Form:Seeking geometrical order and expression of formal qualities
1.1.2. Function: Seeking adequate performance and expression of spaces
1.1.3. Materialization: Seeking adequate performance and expression of
material elements
1.2. Design is a balancing act: wishing versus needing

The materialization of the is the
creation of the physical shell around the building spaces.
This materialization is concerned with the relationships between:
