description Many architects pay little attention to the structural issues when determining the form of a building. This paper aims at increasing architects and structural engineers’ awareness about the importance of aesthetic value derived from structural systems and elements in the architectural design form. It also focuses on showing professionals how to read the structure of a building architecturally or at least as parts of an architectural composition rather than seeing it only as the building load carrying parts. The research reviews several literatures to introduce the relationship between architect and structural engineer during the design processes. The review also focuses on understanding the relationship between structural and architectural form through illustrating various classifications and definitions. The review moves into an analytical study on different structural types in accordance to architectural form and style across periodical time. An assortment was concluded from the study to identify the degree and type of this relationship in different architectural styles and movements. Finally, the research concludes through the recommendations; the importance of maintaining the existing strong and mutual relationship between the structure and architecture form for a better built environment.
