Needs

===An Architect (before starting the construction of the building) must take into account three principal elements: the people, the building and the context of the building. With time everything can change, for example, people are not always the same, their needs change, the surrounding of the building (context) changes too. Within each element there exist many characteristics: people have Physiological needs (water, oxygen, light...), Psychological (security, safety, self-esteem and ego) and Sociological (interactions with other persons, place divided into public and private); the building must meet needs of protection (both the people and objects), weight (must stand up itself), comfort (must have appropriate conditions to live), flow (must resist the entrance and exit at people and objects), and distribution (must have proper internal arrangements); the context of the building is marked by culture (history, religion and politics), environment (adapt to the surrounding), connections (connected to the services), economic (Must be economically feasible) and flexible (adapt according to the changes). Then architects should take into consideration many needs, and can take some to a greater extent than others, but after all, the building should comply with all these needs.===
