1. Functionality: Architects consider how the interior design will meet the needs of the people who will use the space. This can include aspects such as flow, accessibility, comfort, and safety.
2. Aesthetics: Architects consider the visual appeal of the interior design, including color, texture, lighting, and other design elements. The design should create a pleasing aesthetic that is congruent with the building's purpose.
3. Materials: Architects must choose durable, high-quality materials that are both aesthetically pleasing and functionally appropriate for the space's intended use. The materials used should be in line with the building's cost and the sustainability factor.
4. Spatial planning: Architect designs the layout of the space, both in terms of the functionality and aesthetic. They consider the location of walls, doors, windows, and other elements that contribute to the layout of the room.
5. Sustainability: Architects consider sustainable design principles to create buildings that are more energy-efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly. They consider materials, ventilation, and systems that can help to reduce energy consumption.
6. Building codes and regulations: Architects must consider certain regulations and zoning laws that affect the design of the building's interior, including occupant capacity, fire safety requirements, and accessibility requirements.
7. Acoustic considerations: Architects must consider acoustics within spaces to minimize noise and improve sound quality. Design elements like good soundproofing, sound-absorbing materials, and proper soundproofing of the spaces should be considered.
