We have entered an era of
‘modernization’, led by the Western world. In our times of unprecedented
demographic expansion, infrastructural development is racing to meet demand
with supply. As architects and designers, we have been pressured to embrace
consumerism. Globalization
has been adopted as a solution to the problem. The international fascination is
inevitable. They are internationally acknowledged. Developing countries have equated
economic prosperity and success to the adoption of ‘contemporary architecture’
in a bid to demonstrate leadership and innovation.
Mimicking the formula of
technologically advanced countries will project us into the public eye. Modern architecture suffers an
“inherent” inability to “handle shocks to the system.” It resists reuse and
repurposing. What buildings need is akin to what nature provides: “redundant .
. . connectivity, approaches incorporating diversity, work distributed across
many scales, and fine-grained adaptivity of design elements.” “When something doesn’t fit
anymore, we architects have the ability – and responsibility – to make sure
that our cities do not force us to adapt to outdated leftovers from the past,
but actually fit to the way we want to live”.
