So many great cultures around the world, with breathtaking monumental structures lacked the word and concept of architecture. To approach the build environment through architecture is a European way, perhaps as you said it is time for new words, new concepts, new approaches to the build environment outside architecture? Thank you


Thank you for the very interesting response! Well to give you an example in ancient Egypt there was no word or concept for it, the title was "overseer of the works". In china the term was carpenter and master carpenter if I am not mistaken. In Japan there was also no word or concept for it and the Japanese architect Itō Chūta had to invent a term in Japanese to express the western concept for architecture during the late 1800s. The concept of architecture is a Greek concept, which the romans and then later Europeans  appropriated, hence I called it Eurocentric.

What do you think Architects can do to acknowledge the struggles of minority groups within our working environments? https://padlet.com/ismmagazine/81vhxgo1urmr4oxf/wish/985145424 2020-12-03 18:47:23 UTC https://padlet.com/ismmagazine/81vhxgo1urmr4oxf/wish/985145424 https://padlet.com/ismmagazine/81vhxgo1urmr4oxf/wish/985154966 I’m inspired by how you place your experience as individuals at the heart of your approach to architectural education. I think that is really important for empowerment and helping to challenge received wisdom.]]> 2020-12-03 18:49:14 UTC https://padlet.com/ismmagazine/81vhxgo1urmr4oxf/wish/985154966 ismmagazine https://padlet.com/ismmagazine/81vhxgo1urmr4oxf/wish/985166748 Neil: thanks /other ! my question is that institutions (maybe I mean education institutions :-) have got reasonably good at being performative and signalling about equality, but maybe the reality is always lagging behind this... what do you think we should do (or what would you like to do) to effect real change?
