My Strategy for Developing Architectural Concepts

[@mohammedmarwanmohammed3234]

Concept development is one of the most important aspects of architecture; one where most struggle to come up with. You made a fantastic point when you clearly stated that good ideas are different iterations of an existing item. This is one opinion about great architecture I've been looking for for a long time, and I'm happy to have finally found it on this channel. You're a wonderful teacher, Dami, and I can't wait to see the final drawings of the library. Wishing you all the best.

[@DamiLeeArch]

Thank you 😊

@@DamiLeeArch Dear Dami Lee, I hope this comment finds you well! I wanted to speak with you about an architectural project I am doing at the moment for a Student Design Competition. Is there a way I can get a hold of you. I tried to DM you on Instagram. Now I am thinking that may nit be the best way to communicate. Will you by any chance, reply back via email? If so, what is your email? If by any reason you do not feel to give out my email on here, would it best be to try to communicate and find your email via your website? Please Let me know and I am dearly sorry for all the questions. God Bless you and I love your videos. You are by far my favorite! Kind regards,

Constraints lead to more creative solutions 👌🏽

[@DamiLeeArch]

Constraints also make the best story!

[@atam6]

@@DamiLeeArch my clinet constraints helped me develop the concept. I am not an architect so I didn't know about the theory behind it. I stumbled on your video as I am skimming over works of others while looking for inspiration. then I realized what I have done and experienced based on the theory you provided.. thnx

[@informationcollectionpost3257]

Was doing mechanical engineering & design for 15 years prior to becoming becoming a material handler and assembling in an auto plant. I did it because I needed an income. Used books and the internet for my ideas too as I had to design concepts for never before designed machinery. Usually you can't copy an idea entirely as your constraints forbid it. Now stuck designing mostly kitchens for my wife and myself. I need to do a second one. We both want functional over aesthetic ( I hope its spelled right) but my wife insists on aesthetics. I thought your video would help but some of your words left me blank. I understand the work triangle but my wife keeps wanting to trash the concept until she has to actyally work on the kitchen. We usually can't stand the designs suggested by the kitchen centers as they aren't functional and look hard to cook in. I understand your phase "contemplating my past life decisions" well. We politely argue a lot but eventually come up with a great design that even wows the kitchen centers after we work on it for a year. With contractors hard to find just contracting the project may take two years. We also do a lot of fighting on the budget as I have performed a significant amount of cost estimating in my life and I am good at it and performing more of the work ourselves is a terrible option as my employer often wants us to perform hard physical labor for over 52 to 54 hours per week. Any ideas on how to speed up the concept phase as it looks like a new kitchen is going to take us 5 to 6 years in our latest house?

[@tpolerex7282]

Always! I couldn’t design without constraints, nor without a overarching concept.

[@prapanthebachelorette6803]

Your argument becomes more solid too when the constraints are out there so it’s not just your own subjective opinion 😊

[@yesenia2797]

I just ran into this video and I appreciate it so much. Im currently in my third year of undergrad and my semester project is a library proposal. I interviewed my local librarian and she was so helpful. She gave me many resources, helpful ideas and even some case studies. I've been stuck on the design aspect of my concept but this has given me many ideas

I love libraries!!! (And librarians) good luck and have fun!!

[@katiepetkova6752]

I’ve asked myself this so many times - was genuinely great to see it all vocalized and explained so coherently!

Great video. In the past 5-10 years I've come to appreciate the many parallels that occur in design cycles in different field. I've heard stories similar to yours from software engineers and high school shop and art teachers. It's super interesting how you apply client focus and accountability to your decisions. Thanks for sharing!

Omg the cheesecake analogy lol. Loved it. I actually worked in healthcare for 4.5 years before deciding on getting my M.Arch and specifically in cosmetic contact lens optometry(and even cosmetically with glasses), it’s A LOOTT about helping the patient understand what they want and balancing that with what they need with their prescription 😊 it’s weird how interpersonal communication is truly present in every field. I’m excited to see how it translates for me once I work in the architecture field! Great video 💛

[@DamiLeeArch]

Wow that sounds like a really interesting career transition. And you're absolutely right, soft skills are so glossed over in architectural education but is so important!

[@AbhishekKumar-bk9ue]

It was amazing to relate some of the concepts mentioned by you which I have used in my personal project "unknowingly". Hope to get more of these and really excited for your upcoming video on this library project completion.

[@josephborr]

I had a small library in my thesis last year. After watching your video, I feel so much regret not focusing on that area more. I love how you described the library as one of the most interesting typologies, showcasing how society relates to information. My thesis was a Center for Indigenous Archaeology. For indigenous peoples, passing on their knowledge to future generations is crucial to their culture's survival, and I regret taking the library aspect of it for granted. Thank you for this!

[@DamiLeeArch]

Wow that sounds like SUCH a rich program. I didn't realize how much cultural / historical significance libraries had until I started researching it and think I came out of my thesis not wanting to stop that discussion. You should check out the book library at night, if you haven't already - it's such a good read!

[@roguestarr4382]

When I was in architecture history class, we had to choose from a list of buildings in the city and analyse/interpret the structure and write an essay on it. I was reminded of that when you mentioned how libraries hold treasured information for cultures in a society. The library I chose to analyze and write my essay on was a newly built work and there was some information about it provided by the design firm. The way the light reflected inside cast a golden glow on the surfaces, the books, and shelves. It was like being inside a chamber full of gold with the wealth of books and information as the primary treasure.

[@roguestarr4382]

correct my typos. I wouldnt have thought i got a decent grade on that essay. Lol

[@nickvsarch]

Can't wait to see the photos of the library!!

[@DamiLeeArch]

The progress is slow but steady. Hopefully I can share photos in the next few months if everything goes well. 😁

[@JørgenMIKKELSEN-h6b]

Macroconcept is the guiding star in how projects are perceived - I very much like to fill them with sociologist approaches and analysis, and set targets on efficiency ( generating more library users) to account for success to bring a tacit change to a neighborhood, city, for example. I guess you account for it by creating meeting rooms and similar, but incorporating rituals - of and for people - through the help of architecture - as well as integrating the other layer of clients, community stakeholders like schools and clubs, and anchoring them to the living project.

[@Dea_Decay]

As a musician I've seen many argue that constraints make a person more creative as they have to come up with solutions, and there are those who of course argue against it, that without constraints you can be more free and encourage experimentation and for inspiration to happen by going down new paths. Music, and art, can certainly benefit from those freedoms, if your willing to take a riskier path that doesn't guarantee a financial reward (and if that is a priority). Certain restraints might help you make a song with more mass appeal, it can also speed up decision making, like in your example where you can ask yourself, or your band members (or clients if your doing a commissioned song). It seems even more practical in architecture to have those constraints given the cost in time and money for the firm. That said with both music, and at my day job, I like allotting time for creative challenges, be it a challenge that involves working around artificial constraints, or one of completely free form creative expression, with an unlimited budget and time. If done right they should be voluntary and fun, help build a sense of team, or shared experience for those who do it that builds some kind of bond, while also allowing for the potential for growth in unexpected ways, or stumbling into something that could actually be helpful on a future real world project. It might not be applicable to every work environment, but those shared experiences can become sort of shorthand of something that either worked that might be usable in a different project, or failed and can serve as a warning when a realwork project is heading down a path that has already been shown not to work in previous exercises.

there are always constraints

Are there crossovers between architecture and software engineer?

I'm doing concept design for a theatre project in my 3rd year Arch Undergrad course. Your video is relatable to my assignment, I'm interested in your insights and notice parallels of your process with mines. Its actually quite fun to do, discovery seems to be personal, and art being subjective can create different versions of the right concept, like infinite parallel universes. Btw, I also do hand gestures a lot too, so does Norman Foster, it's probably an Architect thing.

[@OverZel]

I'm an illustrator, but I took an architecture class in high school and feel in love with it. I wonder how things would be if I continued in it. This channel is sparking that love again.

[@NotEvenOverThere]

You can always go back to school for it, if that’s really your passion and you can commit to doing the work necessary to reach your goal you should do it instead of wondering why or why not. Maybe try your hand in the field in some non-invasive ways like interior design or building design in general. Dami actually had a video about whether or not you should get your license and aside from of course money and some legal responsibilities I think you could easily get what you want out of the job or field without too much schooling.

[@swlol3335]

LMAO the comment about your videographer being old had me rolling! 😂 that was fab-freaking-tastic 😝 the blank look on your face as he described that Star Wars scene was golden, Dami! I watched for the info and content, but I’m staying cause of your humor!

[@sejima79]

If I may add a couple of points. 1. Though it could be inferred, it could be made more explicit how concepts should form the core tenets of the story of the project. The story is what allows clients, laypeople, and evwn colleagues a way into the project should the concepts be too abstract. The story is often also what is marketed. 2. I am having trouble with the courtyard as a "concept." You were alluding to it, that a concept should be the reference point for project decisions, which I wholly agree with. However, a courtyard, is not so much a concept but an architectural response/solution in support of a concept. Thus I found this the weak point of the project, for what its worth. One point you hit though, concept development is THE hardest part of a project and in practice outside of academia is not given enough time and attention.

15:35 Strategies. My day to day life consists of comparing new data to old data, do things fit? Are there logical inconsistencies? If there are apparent logical inconsistencies; am I overlooking something? If I want a new concept I address the issue to my unconscious mind and see what happens over the next day or so.

Not even to replace the wonky floors from uneven load in the second floor! Most of the worndown teakwook cabinets are also attached to the wallboards so they're set & not movable.

In your example of 'you like cheese cake', that reminded me of Frank Llyoyd Write. I read somewhere that when he was with a new client, the client would tell him what they want and his response would be to tell them 'no you really dont want that, what you really want is....' and then he would go into detail of how he envisioned how the project should be. Something like that Jedi mind trick "the drones you are looking for are not here".
