Can the existing building's structure affect the architectural ordonnance?

Yes, the existing building's structure can affect the architectural ordonnance. The structural limitations and requirements of the building can influence the design of the new architecture. For example, if the existing building has load-bearing walls, the new design may need to work around them or incorporate them into the design. Similarly, the height, shape, and materials of the existing building can also affect the architectural ordonnance. The architect must consider these factors and design a plan that seamlessly integrates the new architecture with the existing structure.
