Definition

• •A simple definition of a concept suggests that concepts are ideas that integrate various elements into a whole. 
• •These elements can be ideas, notions, thoughts, and observations.
• •Concepts are the antithesis of notions, which do not make any pretense about being appropriate.

Introduction

•Concept formulation is not an automatic activity; it takes a concentrated effort to develop a concept that appropriately integrates things not previously brought together.

•Bringing things together is a creative act-one that designers, architects, critics, artists, musicians, and writers have identified as being about 10 percent inspiration or genius and 90 percent hard work.

•Concept formulation is an unfamiliar activity for most people, and students of architecture have as much trouble mastering it as they do other aspects of design.

•Three problems block skill development in conceptualizing.

• communication,
• inexperience, and
• generating hierarchies.
