One of the most important factors that affect both human needs and the designer’s capabilities is the information available in the built environment, which helped in the development of methodologies for architectural design that control the basic design process .... Therefore, the research focused on studying the relationship between information, human needs, and designer capabilities through three axes, the axis The first: a study of the basic concepts of human needs, information, and the designer's capabilities - The second axis: an analytical study of the evolution of architectural design methodologies according to human needs and the factors of the built environment - The third axis: the role of the designer's own capabilities in reshaping and formulating architectural design methodologies
