The development of a question set to evaluate the effectiveness of buildings

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Architecture is for everybody. The question set is a starting point for those people who want to evaluate and appreciate buildings. The question set is the end result of a searching process which included the examination of some historical influences which affected people's beliefs about architecture: The analysis of two buildings in Houston, Texas, and the development of a fundamental architectural theory. The application of the question set to buildings in Houston, Texas, was tested by students in the School of Architecture, Rice University, and other interested friends.
