Architecture


Architecture is the art and science of designing buildings and structures. An Architect has to keep feasibility, cost to the builder as well as the functional and aesthetic aspects in mind. While planning a structural design, the architect has to weave interplay of space, volume, texture, light, shadow or abstract elements to achieve pleasing aesthetics. In this way architecture is different from applied science or engineering, which concentrate more on the functional aspects of the structure. In other words one can say that Architect embraces both utilitarian as well as aesthetic aspects. As urbanism is booming so are the job opportunities in architecture.
