The Universality of Architecture and the Individuality of Residential Architecture - Architecture is generally universal, but among all types of architecture, only residential homes are individualized. Unlike other buildings, a house is a microcosm organized specifically for the people who live within it. Therefore, when an architect designs a home commissioned by a client, they are more of an adapter than a creator. Conflicts between the architect and the client are inevitable when the architect tries to impose a strong creative ego in designing a home with clear user requirements. Once the building is constructed, it undergoes harsh transformations the moment it leaves the architect's hands. Thus, creating architectural spaces is not a 'fight with oneself' as it is in writing, but rather a 'struggle with the world,' excluding the architect. The most important struggle involves synchronizing and homogenizing the space envisioned by the client with the space organization, material construction, and safety techniques explored by the architect.
