architecture (noun)
The complex or carefully designed structure and organization of something, encompassing both physical buildings and abstract systems like software or arguments. It refers to the art and science of designing and constructing entities that are functional, aesthetic, and coherent.
"I love the modern architecture of the new library downtown."
Think of an 'Arch' (a building part) and a 'Tech' (technical design) working together: Archi-tech-ture.
Using 'architecture' to mean 'building'. → Architecture is the design/style; building is the object. (Wrong: 'The architecture is 50 stories high.')
Pronouncing 'ch' as in 'church'. → It should be pronounced like a 'k'. (AR-ki-tek-ture)
