From the concept map I can infer that architecture is composed of many different elements which are connected together. When creating architectural space mainly for the shelter purpose, we should also be thinking about making it pleasing to the eyes and to have other functions as HVAC/water/electrical systems. The concept of the space is also interconnected with structure and materials. Different materials may be used for different structures depending on what kind of space we need to create. If designing a large open space bearing wall with steel may be a wiser choice, on the other hand while designing one story house, wood and point load frame system can be more economical choice. Thus based on the concept map, architecture is about many different choices that we need to make and combine them together to create something that will have the purpose, functionality, and aesthetics.
