Abstract The purpose of this study is to investigate the structural response for the stability caused by the lateral forces at the edge of form active structure and its impact on the architectural form in terms of architectural effect. Architectural contexts applied to the design process of integrating architectural concepts and structural logic for a certain building are various. But, for the purpose to investigate the structure in terms of architectural effect, it is thought that the evaluation should have its basis on the functional as well as emotional characteristics and their relationship. In buildings of form active structural type, we can find that the statical system responding to the load does an absolute role for the decision of building form. Especially, naturally responding methods responding to the lateral forces are expressed on the form. As a result, it is thought that the establishment of physical stability can be a method to maintain an effect of production, and its expression on the form can be a method to provide an effect of experience through the emotional stability. Therefore, the truthful response to the structural logic can be regarded to have a methodic value to establish architectural languages and, at the same time, to maintain a justification through the architectural effect.
