Exploring a Cross-Cultural Theory of Architecture

The Exploring a Cross-Cultural Theory of Architecture article contributes to the development of a theoretical framework to address and explain all human behaviour linked with buildings, dwellings and settlements, in terms of both creating and using such environments. The aim of the article is to seek a theory that can be objectively applied to understanding interactions between the architectural values and building traditions of different cultures. The article argues for the configuration of a theory of architecture that can serve as a tool for understanding the nature of all designed, arranged, and/or constructed environments used as human habitats across all cultural contexts
