In the article about needs in architecture by Ching it says that when an architect is develops a design she or he needs to consider three important aspects, this aspects are: the needs of the people who is going to make life in the building, the structure of the building itself and the context where the building is going t o be built. These three aspects are dynamics, so they are always in change and in permanent conflict with each __ eater? __, so the architect will have to create solutions adapted to the needs of every each of them. The people’s needs are very important because they are the ones who are going to use the spaces of the building, so the building has to provide them and adequate ventilation to control the temperature, water and a waste deposit. But also have to be of a adequate scale for a human and have a good illumination, be safe and private, and provide interaction with others allowing for public spaces. The building needs to protect the inhabitants and the content of itself, thats why it hs to be designed to last and support weight, also be resistant to extremes situations as an earthquake or a fire. The internal distribution must maintain a comfortable and stable space for living, also allow convenient entrances and exit and have proper internal arrangement for distribution of energy, information and various materials. The context around is a very important aspect to consider for the design of the building, this context have cultural issues like the history of the civilization, their religion or they political preferences. The construction cannot be isolated from the rest of the environment, it has to be related with the place where is located by connections with outside channels and must be designed to be economically feasible with the changing needs of the people. In conclusion the architect must be prepared to face the changing needs of the environment and the people, so he can provide solutions that make his building an adequate space economical feasible to change with the context.
