Insight and inspiration in turbulent times.
Modern architecture took a wrong turn early in the 20th century. It’s why there are many of us who find the modern buildings where we work, live, shop and socialize less than inviting and even disturbing in some cases.
The architect should come in a humble way and say: “How can I support the life that is happening here?” This is the only way to be sustainable.
We conclude on a hopeful assertion: that real choice does in fact exist for a more bottom-up, evolutionary approach to planning and design, one that offers the basis of a new era of ecological humanism in architecture, at a time when such a reform is desperately needed.
