A concern with Space

It seems almost silly to think that an architect would not think of space first right? That's very much true, in fact architects must survey the available amount of arable building space even before they get to the drawing board. An architect must also take into consideration what the space will be used for to appropriate meet the needs for the demand, For example, a sports arena must accommodate different types of sports and activities that it can be used for, but at the same time need to consider the comfort of the spectators by ensuring that all spectators can view the center without obstructions (Sporre 99). Architects also need to consider the space available for seating at the same time considering spectators comfort and ease of access to public facilities such as restrooms, food etc (Sporre 100).  Failing to address functionality space aspects of architecture will decrease the overall satisfaction of those certain customers and most likely owners will deem your masterpiece as a dysfunctional failure. Its always important to use space wisely and incorporate the functionality aspect to ensure satisfaction. On the right you can see a picture of a basketball stadium that serves for many other purposes. If you look at the picture closely you can see the wide array of variables an architect must consider to serve such a great number of spectators.
