Q

I must projects, many people have various interest in the outcome of the work. These people include but are not limited to the architect, owner, developer, leasing agent, public, and users of the project. For example, the architect may want the building to be a higher sustainable building where the developer and they want the building lease space in the least expensive way possible

A

Orientation

35
Q

A

Flexibility

36
Q

Allows for extra space for a dynamic activity instead of hitting the space precisely to a static activity
