Architectural quality and sustainability



Architectural quality is about the shape, finish and usefullness of the built environment. It must fit, but to be sustainable it must also be made with healthy and resource efficient construction methods.

The Ethics & Aesthetics of Architecture



We understand more about ethics when we learn to create beauty, says philosopher Ludwig Wittgenstein.  Architects have a duty towards the users of their designs to delight and reinforce their health and prosperity.

Architectural innovation





Architects are believed to be innovative by training, but innovations that reach the market requires a system approach that involves all the stakeholders.
