The creative spark represents the initial moment of discovery that drives architectural innovation, serving as the foundation upon which abstract ideas are transformed into tangible solutions. Architectural design is not merely about planning and construction; it is about shaping a holistic vision that responds to human, social, and environmental needs. The creative spark provides architects with the freedom to experiment, innovate, and develop designs that harmonize beauty, functionality, and sustainability. It is the cornerstone of creative thinking, without which design loses its essence and identity. In the face of contemporary challenges, from climate change to the demands of modern cities, the creative spark remains the driving force behind innovation and a key contributor to achieving Sustainable Development Goal 11, “Sustainable Cities and Communities,” by creating urban environments that are more balanced, humane, and resilient.<br /><br />Almustaqbal University, The First University in Iraq.
