Abstract

Buildings and architecture have a unique dual character embodied in their external form and internal spatial/functional development. This chapter explores the dual human-environmental dimensions of design. Ideally, this duality is integrated to fit the environment and to support human activities. Internal-external relationships must be creatively resolved for each building in order to pass the fitness test.
