# Architecture Design
## Overview
Design before you build. Architecture decisions are expensive to change.
Understand constraints, explore options, validate trade-offs, then decide.
## When to Use
- Starting a new system or significant new component
- Evaluating whether to build vs. use existing solutions
- Making decisions that will affect multiple parts of the system
- Choosing between fundamentally different structural approaches
- Designing APIs, data models, or service boundaries
