My+Definition+of+Architecture+and+Urban+Planning

Architecture For me architecture is the art of desinging buildings to stamp your imagination, awaking differents emotions and sensations. Each project is unique, because it adatps for each client and his needs; each desing fits and works in a single place, that one for it was desinged for.

Urban Planning I think that urban planning is the way that the cities should be organized according to the common sence and the comfort of the habitants of it. In the same time, an urban planning doesn't just is in charge of the distribution and the flow of people, he also organized the city to give more o less importance to the architectural desings.

Differences There are some differences between being an architect and an urban planning althought both are related. The architect focuses in small spaces if we compare it to magnitude of the spaces that the urban planning works with, in other words, the architect works in a micro way compared to an urban planning. Another different is that the architect most of the time only think about people, but the urban planning have to think the flow of pedestrians and the cars also. context, people change and people needs, materials

//Alexandra Díaz//: Let's talk //Alexandra Díaz:// Ohh, I choossed a rap musician too!...It is said that for a rap musician the needs are a home thater, a party room-wired for sound, a recording studio and a weight room //Alexandra Díaz:// I think that is funny that a rap musician need a weight room //Alexandra Díaz//: What do you think? //Alexandra Díaz:// But actually if you see some rapers like //Alexandra Díaz//: 50 cent's, you'll notice that he is fitness, no? //Alexandra Díaz//: Hahaha, do you really think so? a party room? //Alexandra Díaz//: Mmmm, I'm getting your point //Alexandra Díaz:// I think that you are right //Alexandra Díaz:// They are like funny people, that explain the party room //Alexandra Díaz:// But I also think that the weight room is something more about a image //Alexandra Díaz//: About creating it //Alexandra Díaz:// Actually, I think that those needs are really important //Alexandra Díaz//: Exactly. I think that if you want to be a raper you need that image, but I'm still thinking that it is so weird **Andrea Centeno:** Yeah! it is weird!, but well, we, as architects we are, need to know this kind of stuf in the time we desine something... Do you know what Chin said right? about the 3 aspects of architecture's needs.... //Alexandra Díaz:// Yeah yeah **Andrea Centeno:** He said that one was the needs of the people that are using the building, the sturctural needs of the building and...... what was the last one? //Alexandra Díaz//: And the context, which one is the more important for you? **Andrea Centeno:** Well, for me all of those are important, is like he said, those are the needs of architecture itself... //Alexandra Díaz:// Yeah I think that you are right **Andrea Centeno:** Can you explain me the context one? //﻿// //Alexandra Díaz:// Yeah yeah sure,when you desing a project as you know you have a client,but also you have an ubication. Your desing won't be flying in the air and is important to you that every context is different, for example, it's not the same to desing an auditorium and place it here in Vzla that place it in Miami because here we are exposed to earthquakes, are you folloning me? **Andrea Centeno:** Ohh! that's so true! so that's what he was talking about... Ohh I get it now...Defenitley, it most be really hard to consider all 3 needs right?, because you also have to take in count the needs of people, the way their lives are so you can create spaces that will work to them, and the structural needs of the building so it can be made, I mean, talking about physical principles and all the stuff... //Alexandra Díaz//: Yeaah I think that it is really complicated, well actually that is exactly why I don't think that architecture is easy,but what about an urban planning? ﻿﻿**Andrea Centeno:** Yeah! you are totally right! is not easy at all!, well, I believe that urban planers have some dificulties in their own way, but they don't have the same needs as an architect. They also have to consider economic impact, and have to deal more with pleople than we do....What do you think? //﻿﻿// //Alexandra Díaz:// Mmmm I'm don't think as you do, because an architect also have to deal with people, we desing something for someone, it wouldn't make sense desing something for nobody **Andrea Centeno:** Ohh I know, but we deal with our clients needs, I meant that urban planers have to deal with comunities, they have to study how their proyect wolud afect a whole town and their necesities and problems...All of them...That's what I meant... //﻿﻿Alexandra Díaz//: Aah, I think that I getting your point. But also they have to think about the cars flow and that kind of aspects //Alexandra Díaz//:Yeah, I totally agree with you, They have to think more about the differents flows but in the other hand I think that they don't need as much knowledge about strutures as we do //Alexandra Díaz:// No doubt that about that! //Alexandra Díaz:// Okey Andrea, Bye bye! I really enjoyed talking with you!
