Architecture is the art we all encounter most often, most intimately, yet precisely because it is functional and necessary to life, it's hard to be clear about where the "art" in a building begins.
In contrast, sociological institutionalism argues that hierarchy became widespread not so much because it is functional but because it was regarded as an appropriate way to coordinate interactions in a world dominated by modern Western culture.
It's not just that fashion can't be an art form because it's functional, but because it's feminine".
"This is one of the best chairs ever," he said, because it's functional and a "beautiful sculpture".

"You can't just assume that because something's there it is functional, or has been adapted for," Chomsky pointed out.
At a first time, SADT (Structured Analysis and Design Technique) method was proposed to organize the specifications because it is a functional analysis method [IGL, 89] and commonly used in railway sectors.
In our view, it is the fact that it is not an eye at all, but instead a circadian organ that has survived in much the same way as the pineal organ of non-mammalian vertebrates has survived because it is fully functional and provides a selective advantage exactly as it is.
The STS movement was chosen because it is a functional daily task that has proved to be reliable, valid, sensitive, and predictive of falls, and of future locomotor and ADL status in frail subjects [25].
NALT was chosen for host transcriptional analysis because it is the functional homolog of human tonsils and adenoids, which are thought to be important local inductive and effector sites for both mucosal and systemic responses to pneumococcal carriage [ 6, 13, 14].
One explanation might be that the function of Rap1/Sfp1/Fhl1 affinity is context independent, leading even unconserved affinity to be functional, whereas for other TFs, a uniform background level of N U is found throughout the genome (because it is non-functional outside of the proper genomic context, and therefore not selected against).
