There is so much change going on in our community. Architects like doctors, take an oath to do no harm. Architects are part of the decision-makers for what is designed and ultimately built in our communities. There is a difference between designing ‘for us‘ versus designing ‘with us‘. We must demand the innovation and sustainable design from this profession, to include us in the process and to reap the benefits. Please join us in moving forward as a community.
