INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Another kind of art, just touches the surface of the society and people
but not the reality, and reflect the situation and problems as they are.
But responsive architecture touches the human soul and seeks out
the nucleus of the problem to give a true and a permanent
solution. This architecture tries to cater not only to the physical
comfort of people but also to the spiritual comfort of the people.
