WORLD ARCHITECTURE DAY 2020, INDIA
Architecture Day has been created in order to pay tribute to this industry. Architects have the ability to change the world that we live in with their amazing work. Architecture Day is about recognizing their work, as well as the important role that architecture plays.
Architecture Day is celebrated all around the world today. It may be celebrated on different dates and in different ways, but it is great to see that it is an art and industry that is being appreciated all around the world.
There are many different ways that architecture impacts society and the world around us. At the very roots, architecture exists so that a physical environment can be created for people to live in. However, architecture is a lot more than this environment that has been built. Architecture is a part of our culture. It represents not only how we see the world, but also how we see ourselves.
While the concept of building a shelter is pretty simple and straightforward, the style of a building was shaped by the value it will bring to society, the materials that can be used, and the climate within the specific location. However, as there have been advances in technology and the world has become more connected, styles have evolved. Despite this, even in contemporary construction, there is still significance when it comes to cultural nuances being honored.
Not only does architecture have an impact on society at a high level, but it also has an impact at a personal level as well. Everything from material finishes to the way that space is laid out can contribute towards the productivity, mood, and health of the occupants. For example, did you know that people are less likely to take sick leave when they work in a space that has been well-designed? They are also usually more focused and then tend to contribute more to their business. On the flip side, higher levels of stress can be caused as a consequence of unimaginative buildings and concrete, sterile landscapes.
When you take all of this into account, it is not difficult to see why it is important to have an Architecture Day. Architects play a massive role in society. Their work is a combination of both science and art, which draws on and intertwines with politics, economics, sociology, psychology, and more!
