A sense of order in architecture is essential as it:
1. Enhances functionality: An orderly arrangement of spaces, furniture, and equipment makes it easy for people to use and navigate the building. An orderly design ensures that the building is built for its intended purpose and that it meets the functional requirements of the users.
2. Promotes safety: An orderly design of a building enhances safety by ensuring that people can easily find their way around the building in case of emergency without getting lost. It also ensures that safety equipment such as fire alarms, extinguishers, and exits are easy to locate and use.
3. Aesthetically pleasing: An orderly design results in an architecturally pleasing structure that looks good both on a functional and aesthetic level. The building's visual harmony and symmetry give people a sense of calm and reassure them that everything is in its place.
4. Ease of maintenance: An orderly design ensures that the building is easy to maintain as it facilitates easy access to components such as plumbing, wiring, and heating systems. An orderly design means that designers and engineers can easily find components and assess their functionality.
5. Cost-effective: An orderly design is cost-effective way of designing a building as it reduces the amount of materials and components used in construction. This reduces the overall building cost, resulting in an affordable and sustainable building.
