Architecture requires the process of building, but the act of building does not necessarily result in a work of Architecture. This correlation sets the bar for the successful Client-Architect-Builder collaboration that a work of Architecture requires.

Architecture is the design activity that provides guiding principles and drives solutions for the range of realms wherein buildings seek success. These realms include Site, Shelter, Space and Moment.

Incorporating these considerations and implementing these principles into the design and construction of a building provides the path to producing a work of Architecture.
