circulation

Circulation refers to how people move through a building. As all buildings are designed both for human beings and with a dedicated program and function in mind, it is the responsibility of an architect to design a space which encourages people to move through it in the desired manner. Thinking about circulation involves many questions; Should people stop here? Where will people navigate between different floors? Will this area get too crowded? Although the concept of circulation may seem simple, it is an important element that necessitates careful consideration.
