Architecture

Architecture is the discipline of turning material, structure, climate, rule and use into durable spatial consequence.

A city is not a large collection of buildings; it is a negotiated system of proximity, infrastructure, law, memory, work, conflict and shared routines.

Building

Building is a constructed framework that contains use, maintenance, safety, cost, occupation and future change.

House

House means a dwelling structure organized for living, ownership, repair, family routine and domestic boundary.

Home

Home is a lived sense of belonging, privacy, memory, routine and safety attached to a place.
