How to Start an Architectural Design with Architect Jorge Fontan

How to Start an Architectural Design?
As an architect I think there are 5 key points I want to consider when starting an Architectural Design. These are: Program, Site, Constraints, Goals, and Concept. After establishing and understanding these issues an architect can begin their architectural design.
Program: Is an architectural term for the use of a building. It is the type of building including a list of spaces within the building.
Site: An architect must first perform a site analysis before beginning design on a building as there are many way a site will affect a building or house design.
Constraints: These are the limitations on the project and any restrictions for example zoning and building codes are constraints as well as a construction budget.
Goals: An architect must discuss the project goals with their client or building end user before beginning the design. The property owner's goals will heavily impact the direction the design will take. Examples of goals can be: Sustainable Design, Profit, Innovation, and many other countless project goals.
Design Concept: After completing analysis of the first 4 points and architect must establish a project concept. This is the big idea for the work of architecture. This is the basis of the building design.
These are the 5 steps to beginning an architectural design.
