1. Spatial hierarchy and harmony:

Spatial hierarchy in architectural design involves the intentional

organization and prioritization of spaces based on function and

importance. This includes functional zoning, hierarchy of

importance, thoughtful transitions.
Spatial harmony, on the other hand, focuses on creating a

cohesive and visually pleasing composition through a consistent

design language, integration of natural elements, symmetry,
balanced layouts, and culturally contextual design.

Together, these principles contribute to both functional efficiency
and aesthetic unity in architectural planning, ensuring spaces

are well-organized, visually harmonious, and seamlessly

integrated into their cultural and contextual surroundings.

2. Narrative sequence and movement of pause:

Experiential journey that users undergo as they navigate
through a space. This concept involves carefully orchestrating

the sequence of spaces and designing moments of pause to

enhance the overall architectural experience.
