Intangible & Tangible behaviour in Architectural Thesis discussion
#1

In the context of an architectural thesis, the terms "intangible" and "tangible" behavior can be used to describe different aspects of design, experience, and impact. Let's break down these concepts:

Tangible Behavior:

Dimension and level of site
Soil Analysis , Texture, SBC ( soil bearing capacity)
Wind Rose etc.
Sun path diagram
Climatic analysis

Physical Elements: Tangible behavior in architecture refers to the physical and visible aspects of a design. This includes the materials used, the form and shape of the buildings, the layout of spaces, and the overall built environment.

Functionality: The way spaces are organized and how they serve their intended functions is a tangible aspect of architectural behavior. This includes considerations such as efficiency, accessibility, and usability.
Aesthetic Qualities: Tangible behavior can also encompass the aesthetic qualities of the design, including the use of color, texture, and form. These elements contribute to the visual impact of the architecture.



Intangible Behavior:

Ask Question Yourself in site : 
What the environment is speaking to you ?
What soil is speaking to you ? What do you feel while touching the soil
The Air and Ambience
Site change with time
Site Behaviour change with weather
Search for the soul?
Philosophical movement


Emotional Impact: Intangible behavior in architecture is related to the emotional and psychological responses that the built environment elicits. This could include feelings of comfort, inspiration, or even discomfort based on the design choices.
Cultural and Symbolic Significance: The symbolic meaning and cultural significance of a design may not be immediately apparent but can have a profound impact. For example, a building may represent a community's identity or embody certain cultural values.
User Experience: The intangible behavior also includes the experience of the users as they interact with the space. This involves aspects such as the flow of movement, the quality of natural light, and the overall atmosphere created by the design.
