1. Diagrams
- A diagram is a tool that is used to show information in an organized manner. In most instances, diagrams are composed drawings of geometric shapes to show different relationships within any given space. Sometimes, designers will use drawings of their designs and compare them to other buildings or monuments. In this case, the Phare Tower (designed by Morphosis Architects) and the Eiffel Tower are being compared by heights to see how that could affect the site or surrounding areas.
2. Parti
- A parti is another tool that is usually used in the preliminary stages of the design process. A parti is considered to be a type of diagram that serves as a general idea to figure out a building's program or layout . They are usually in the form of quick sketches or even 3D models to serve as a general idea that organizes the architect's design. 
3. Concept
- A concept is a generalized idea which is ultimately the driving force of any project. It is a tool that designers use as an identity for their work. In the end, the concept should be easily noticeable and should reflect off the design.
