Architecture critics evaluate the relationship between a building and its users by assessing how effectively the building caters to the needs and desires of those who will interact with it. This includes examining whether the building provides a functional and comfortable space that meets the needs of its occupants. Additionally, critics consider how well the building connects with its surroundings, both aesthetically and functionally. They'll also look at how the building's design influences the actions of those who use it, and whether it fosters positive experiences and emotions in the people who pass through it. Overall, the relationship between a building and its users is a complex and multifaceted aspect of architectural quality that critics take into account when evaluating a structure.
