Architecture is an art. Inclusion of art as an integral part of the building adds an excitement, elegance, or uniqueness at a detailed level. The art can be specific to the building function or user and can be ‘art’ incorporated or placed in the building.

Art in buildings can take a variety of definitions. Murals include tile, paint or photographic. Finishes provide opportunities to create patterns or a style. Sculptural elements are freestanding or attached, and can also serve as functional components.

Art can be designed by architects jointly with an artist and architects, or purchased completed pieces from artists or galleries. Art represents one of the most enjoyable parts of the process and the finished space.
