Be it a family story, or something that has absolutely nothing to do with the person, the event is deeply engraved in the individual's mind and will always stay with him or her. This happened when I was twelve years old.

architectural marvels. The basic and core elements of architecture includes quality of experience and quality of space. These, although being the core elements, are often difficult to achieve in the two dimensional realm of procedural documents. On one hand, a poor design may be too apparent; a good design, on the other, may go unnoticed (Alperovich, 2013). Therefore, in the process of satisfying varied technical or temporal requirements for a typical new project, experiential and spatial quality
