“Recognising the elastic nature of the world around us, the architect dos not physically trek to find scientific truths and define geographic certainties [like an explorer], but instead induces the potential futures layered within the existing environments that others would assume they already know.” -Sean Lally
As architects, it is our job to predict trends, analyse culture, and to imagine the future before it can possibly be built. I firmly believe that the scope of our profession is changing to be more broad, and the impacts of one building isn’t just a question of aesthetic and usable qualities, but a question of how this structure impacts environmental, ecological, economic and social systems. It is my goal as an architect to improve the area that we are designing in, and it is our responsibility to make this world a better place. We as architects have the the ideal platform to effect change, as we are designing the very backbone of our infrastructure. We may not be able to save the world, but we can sure as hell make it a better place.
