Sociological research on architecture and the architectural profession, its
education and its impact on society.
Architectural sociology is the study of how designed physical
environment influences and is influenced by society and human behavior. Sociological
theories that focus on cultural patterns, social relationships, and social psychology are
especially used to explain and interpret architectural design. Architectural sociologists
apply their theories and research methods to all phases of the architectural design
process from predesign to post-construction evaluation with the ultimate goal being that
of humanizing designed physical environments. - Ron Smith and Valerie Bugni
