Abstract:
This research report is about the approaches of architecture in relating buildings to their surroundings.
It introduces 'context' and discusses its relevance in terms of architecture.
From here various ideologies of architects are identified and used to categorize the different approaches to context.
A list of primary concerns for context are established.
