Every Architect has different formula in choosing a site for their proposed projects. This will depend on the type of structure to be built. Say, for residential buildings, if you may notice, Architects can produce a design even in a difficult location. It may be because most residential sites are already given by the owner and the Architect has no choice but to set-up a design on that given location. But whatever type of terrain it is, a residential type building can easily be designed to blend in. However, sites with irregular topography will be too difficult to consider for other type of structures like commercial or institutional buildings and alike. It can add tremendous impact to the construction cost and time to build.
Having said all that, it is important to consider at first the type or usage of the structure in choosing a site. Other factors to consider also are the local zoning, the accessibility, infrastructure availability and determining the type of adjacent existing establishments.
Though Architects has their own way of doing site analysis, the owner has always the final say. Some people have their own way or belief in choosing a location for their building and this must be respected. This include the belief in Feng Shui, family tradition and etc.
