SPRING RAY OF THE SUN AND DUPLICATION

Antiqva Photo

That morning the sky was overcast and the sun did as best they could to reach the earth with its rays. Watching the clouds, while walking, I noticed something that caught my attention. His digital machine by hand, so I shot some photographs.

If you look at this picture, technically mediocre because it focuses directly at the sun, you will appreciate that in its central rays are descending defining the shape of an ethereal pyramid.

Here is the idea that informed the best-known funerary monuments of the Egyptians adopted, almost 5,000 years ago, the pyramidal shape. To the people of the Nile valley was the primeval God Atum, who identified with the Sun (Ra) when it is expressed in humans. Linked to the Egyptians worship the sun rose pyramids that would allow the Pharaohs, once passed away, ascend to the Celestial Kingdom. The pyramids were "machines" that allowed the ascension of King's spirit on a journey that would culminate solar when integrated with the One who created them.

In an ancient Egyptian text, known today as "The Story of Sinuhe", we hear that process has to happen after death:

"In the thirtieth year of his reign, in the third month flood on the seventh day, the King of Upper and Lower Egypt Sehetepibra, god, rose to its horizon. The god flew to heaven to join with Atum, the divine body joined with the Creator. The Residence (royal palace) was quiet and the hearts were in mourning ... "

The Egyptians long ago, repaired in ese aspecto piramidal de los rayos del Sol desparramándose sobre la tierra y decidieron emprender la construcción de pirámides cuya cúspide estaba coronada por una piedra revestida con planchas de oro o bronce (el piramidión) que despedía un brillo intenso, símbolo del propio fulgor del Sol.

EVENING IN THE CITY OF ROSES AND MIRRORS

wind blows amoroso el agua de la fuente...
Balbuceo palabras y rozo con mis labios
el caracol marino de tu pequeño oído,
húmedo como rosa que la aurora regase.

Pablo García Baena, Jardín

Permitid, Señor, un poco de lujuria en este mundo.
Permitid que el roce de los labios sea caliente levadura,
permitid que las pupilas de luto del deseo se hundan en el pozo de otros ojos,
permitid que la mano del osado amante palpe la sangre ajena estremecida.

Dejad hervir la entraña de los machos sobre la piel desnuda,
dejad el juego de los adolescentes labios bucear en los senos de los lirios,
dejad las vírgenes con su secreto fuego ardiendo en piras escondidas,
dejad los muslos de los verdes tallos mezclarse en llamas
de tacto, en apretadas lianas de caricias.

Que el rubor se desnude enteramente y la escultura
surja de tactos y torrentes,
que los zumos de ojos exprimidos y de brazos,
manen de fuentes secretas y de labios.
Permitidlo, Señor, que ya sufrieron sus penas los humanos,
que ya, bastante, la carga duró sobre los hombros.

SCHOOLS OF ARCHITECTURE IN SPAIN

Tenerife Demarcation of the College of Architects of the Canary Islands and Saavedra Llanos Díaz, architects

OBJECTIVES POSSIBLE FRAMEWORK FOR RENEWAL

English architects and their professional organizations, the architects' associations, are going through a phase of intense crisis. The architecture is a service activity, directly related to the construction sector, the economic environment is suffering particularly the problem of general lack of funding affecting the country. And with that, the architects' associations, those institutions corporate who had been on a mission over decades, have been pushed to meet a profound reform that conforms to this new and difficult situation.

<---

Many weekends, including Sundays, I devote my time to think and try to learn about experiences related to the profession of architecture. That is, in my supposed free time I dedicate to reading and analyzing information about this occupation that I love and fun years of my life. Recently, in addition, this match that I have assumed the role of representing a broad group of architects, and try to help improve de nuestra estructura común, presidiendo la Demarcación de Tenerife del Colegio de Arquitectos de Canarias

Por eso, en los últimos tiempos intento escudriñar ideas que puedan aclarar cual es el papel que la sociedad nos está queriendo reasignar en estos momentos de cambio. Algo que me ha interesado últimamente a este respecto, es la rica puesta en común de reflexiones que ofrece ese espacio de Internet orientado a los profesionales que es Linked In . Ahí he tenido oportunidad de asistir y participar en algunos grupos y debates que pretenden deliberar conjuntamente sobre el futuro de la arquitectura en nuestro país. Recomendaría especialmente dos, el que se denomina bsA (Rethinking Architecture) and entitled Architects entrepreneurs, encouraged by people as motivated as Jose Javier Quintana, Germain Cintas, Francisco Javier Clemente and Cobreros, among many other architects interested in better performance of the profession.

In one of those forums also involved a Catalan architect, Jordi Farran-I did not know, which is particularly associated with the analysis of the forms of organization and collective problems of the architects. Following the thread beyond the debates of Linked In I had access to her personal blog and that presents some very challenging ideas about what are the objectives as a professional organization for architects in Spain should have, now and for the future. The contributions have led Farrando on its own page group held an extensive exchange of views, which have enriched somehow their initial thoughts in a discussion at least, enlightening.

Association Headquarters Architects of Seville. Ruiz Cabrero and Perea, architects

Inspired by the collective effort I tried to extract and organize those ideas. And because I will dare to present them here, in my personal interpretation, as a potential targets for renewal of these professional institutions, which we have been obliged to work to incorporate the vast majority of architects in Spain over the last century.

Firstly no choice but to recognize both his detractors and their enthusiasts, the Association of Architects still remain in this country, social responsibility extends, facing government and society, as public corporations legally recognized. A commitment that has been pursued over a long time, dating back to 1931, and again endorsed by the recent Royal Decree 1000/2010 on college visa mandatory.

could consider that a renewed Architectural Association, as in the past, could be aimed at four basic tasks: improving the organization and collective representation, the universal promotion of professional activity, the dissemination of social contribution and cultural architecture, and finally, the contribution to the public interest in matters related to this profession.

Expanding beyond these core goals, we could frame a multitude of activities and efforts, among which would highlight the following list of tasks:

Headquarters

Vigo College of Architects of Galicia. Architects: Iris and Piñera

COLLECTIVE ORGANIZATION IMPROVING THE PROFESSION

- Implement and improve the professional qualification form to determine which individuals are effectively trained to perform the tasks by the existence of accurate records and the corresponding control assurance capacity.

- Ensuring the protection of the profession through ethics and legal mechanisms needed to secure a proper technical exercise eligible members.

- Improving standards in performing their own work related to architecture and urban planning, encouraging the development of common procedures and the execution of repetitive processes.

- Help establish the minimum requirements and form of administrative control must meet professional jobs so they can effectively serve its mandate under appropriate conditions.

- Establish a sustainable economic and financial structures and profitable in college organizations, with a measurable performance requirements and compensation of their workers based on numerically testable objectives.

- Creating a corporate image and brand college community which fosters the prestige of the profession and its social presence and to establish from the generation of an appropriate communication policy.

BUSINESS PROMOTION ACTIVITY OF ARCHITECTS

- Improve and expand the role of architects in the professional services market, especially in the construction sector and related activities.

- Investigate and identify new potential niche occupation that serve to redirect and take back the performance of architects.

- Promote the development of this professional group, through better organization, encouragement of technical capacity, expertise and openness to international markets.

- Strengthen the training process, innovation and continuous renewal of skills and expertise among the group integrated into the collegial structures

- Get a fair return to work by promoting the appropriate fees or salaries effort to run.

- To defend the collective interests of architects, related to the economy of the offices and the specific law that affects them.

-Stimulating knowledge and professional organizational innovation, fostering new business initiatives and / or associative complex and highly structured.

See the College of Architects of Catalonia in Barcelona

DISSEMINATION OF SOCIAL CONTRIBUTION OF ARCHITECTURE

- Encourage the transfer and dialogue between sensitivities between the professional disciplines of architecture and related.

- Promote the social role of the architects with their constant participation in collective debates that concern the whole of society and are related to the profession.

- defend the professional interests of ensuring a social knowledge specific disciplinary positions.

- spur the cultural character of the architecture, which put an emphasis on disseminating the ideas of architects and their artistic collaboration social development

- To establish a proper dialogue with public administrations considerations capable of delivering the group in relation to issues that affect them.

- Build public awareness campaigns to interpret are the advantages and contributions made by architects to the value added of the construction industry, particularly in construction and urban planning.

PUBLIC INTEREST IN DEFENSE OF THE FORTHCOMING CONTENTS

- Stimulate the existence of administrative machinery to ensure maximum efficiency in providing public services related to architecture, urbanism and construction, defense of its future users.

- Ensure the protection of consumers of products of architecture, is required to ensure that practitioners meet minimum capacity requirements and their work have appropriate technical competence and quality suitable to meet the purpose intended.

- Collaborate with public alternative to a possible oversight of projects and works to fulfill the technical requirements necessary and to consider legally enforceable, urban and industry.

Model of the new headquarters of the Association of Architects Madrid

Finally, beyond these global corporate objectives, I think that current structures need to evolve in several different directions, segmenting this large cluster of tasks. It is possible that the current situation in which schools take most of the above issues are identified, can lead to various types of institutions.

On one hand, some organizations dedicated to the control of the professional qualifications, the capacity control and ethics for its members, another group of institutions as trade unions, aimed at rendering and defending the professional interests of technical groups, and thirdly, corporations that address the educational, cultural and innovation. The first type of component organizations assume the public, those related to the state and administration, while the other two might be specific or interdisciplinary, in relation to other professions and groups with common interests.

is also possible that the harassment experienced in our days, which is exercised from the political institutions themselves, leading to a complete deregulation of professional practice. Thus, control of construction and architecture would be made exclusively from the technical services of local and state agencies under. Something that obviously are not adequately prepared at this time. The situation would be quite complicated and involve a significant deterioration of the building sector in our cities and increasing marginalization of the social role of professionals and their representative structures and cooperative .--->

Si hubieran conocido la lengua de la ciudad, habrían podido preguntar quién hizo al hombre blanco, de dónde salió la fuerza de los automóviles, cómo se sostienen los aviones, por qué los dioses nos negaron el acero.

Pero no conocían la lengua de la ciudad. Hablaban el viejo idioma de los antepasados, que no habían sido pastores ni habían vivido en las alturas de la sierra nevada de Santa Marta. Porque antes de the four centuries of persecution and dispossession, the grandparents of the grandparents of the grandparents had worked the fertile land that the grandchildren's grandchildren's grandchildren had not been known or even seen or heard.

With smart innovation and strategic partnerships, we will prevail on our limitations, to build a Singapore that will endure for generations to come.

recently commented to a colleague and friend the need to master English in order to keep the burning issues in the international discussion about architecture and urbanism. Currently, English is the lingua franca occurring in richer discussions, for these-and many-themes. The Anglo-Saxon cultural landscape is a fertile ground for continued exchange of ideas and proposals and, unfortunately, not often transcends quickly to other languages. Why it is so important to master the language fluently and so are those related disadvantage using only their native language.

reflection comes this tale of the translation of the lengthy article by Rem Koolhaas, Sendas dream of Singapore, Portrait of a Potemkin metropolis , conducted by Jorge Sainz, a correct edition of the Catalan Editorial Gustavo Gili and recently appeared in Castilian, fifteen years after its original publication in this thick volume titled mythical S, M, L, XL , the architect and Bruce Mau.

over a hundred years ago, Adolf Loos published Die stadt potemkinsche which would reflect critically on the transformation stage of the Ring Viennese a text that I have mentioned recently . Loos there would complain bitterly about the low high-mindedness of the Austrian company to build a significant part of their city, hitherto occupied by the walls demolished.

While there is a parallel remote is not clearly understood because Koolhaas rescue in Portrait of a Potemkin Metropolis or Thirty Years of Tabula Rasa the idea behind the filthy city set that shone through the article by Adolf Loos. Thus, apart from demonstrating an extensive scholarship, the architect journalist again seek the endorsement of an intellectual hero initiation, constant reference of many who were linked in their early to Modern Movement in architecture.

S, M, L, XL. Conrad Bakker, 2006

The highlight of the Singapore case is that it is a very interesting example of the exacerbation of the design illustrated in the contemporary metropolis. An economic paradise that has largely given up freedom for the sake of safety and comfort of its citizens, under the aegis of a ruling class led by the stimulation of meritocracy . That nation island of 640 km2 and where they live now 5 million people, located along the Straits of Johor, between powerful nations such as Indonesia and Malaysia, is a very interesting phenomenon of social construction on the basis of extreme sacrifice and strong collective discipline.

Singapore demonstrates how development can occur in a multicultural society, taking in consideration the waiver essentials for living, as we have understood the European civilization over centuries now. With nearly $ 50,000 per capita GDP, its economic and political model, which prides itself on being a reflection of those western ways, and built over fifty years, would be a successful procedure to overcome delays secular. A system that you try to follow other countries and nations, some as vast as China, now immersed in the incredible transformation that is taking place.

Marina Bay Sands Resort . Moshe Safdie & Associates. 2010

According to Koolhaas' new preface to that article, the Asian island would also be a kind of anticipation of what would be happening in our metropolitan areas, where the waiver of privacy and freedom is spreading in an inexorable way. However, the author describes admiringly the development of Singapore from the perspective of extreme decisions have been taken to transform a space gradient island metropolis par excellence in the XXI century. It would be so, for the architect of Rotterdam, a shining example of another space potemkinizado .

Both Loos and Koolhaas used this fable fin de siecle to question the implementation of an idea of \u200b\u200bthe city that would seem reprehensible. For Loos, to show the mediocrity of a supposedly historicist architecture in line with the tastes of the bourgeoisie Vienna, consisting of new rich and poor. In regard to Koolhaas, would not be so clear their motivation, whenever and critical acid. It would seem that his fascination for radicals and complex processes of urban transformation and metropolitan, the bow only to try to unravel and describe the ideological mechanisms that facilitate such massive changes in some areas contemporaries.

In a continuing journey through the world, the Singapore Flying Dutchman would be revisited early in the decade of the 90 and reflected in the text that said, his astonishment with the processing done: I turned

eight years in the port of Singapore. We were not grounded, but I remember the smell, sweet and putrefaction, both overwhelming.

Last year I came back. The smell was gone. In fact, Singapore was gone, renovated, rebuilt. There was a completely new city.

and its extract is then called Green Plan, territorial transformation objectives in a comprehensible only guided by a pragmatic end, a collective attitude that does not stop at environmental ideologies which are currently used elsewhere. Europe, for example. They express Goh Chok Tong, Prime Minister of the former colony 1991:

Our vision is an island with a greater sense of insularity: most beaches, marinas, resorts and possibly amusement parks, and improved access to an attractive coastline and a city that embraces more closely the coastline as a sign of their island heritage. Singapore will be wrapped in a blanket of vegetation, both areas guarded by the man and protected tracts of natural growth in water bodies intertwined in the landscape.

The ideal of a tropical city of excellence, without complexes or romanticism.

For Koolhaas, Singapore would be the climax of the operational and as Westerners can not understand the ongoing process in this metropolis, something that was seen as aberrant, due to our own polite way of understanding the world. The island at the southern tip of Peninsular Malaysia would be for us the victim of a process of rationalization which would border on the paranoia of the extreme right and logical. Indirectly, this insight would be thus a reflection of organizational failure in Europe and America, to get the cities to be required in the situation current expression of dissatisfaction collective unconscious about our contemporary setting.

This island metropolis to Koolhaas also represent a stark criticism of the political structure that has given stability to the West. As the text continues, this island stands as a highly effective alternative in the midst of a landscape of almost total pessimism about a possible future, a possible world relevant ambitions clearly defined long-term strategies, a ruthless determination to avoid waste and chaos in the wake of democracy left in other places.

That society is in a fairly pronounced, construction one man, Lee Kuan Yew Chinese would rule the former British colony for decades under the umbrella of a call to Neo-Confucianism and the support of his political organization, the Popular Action Party.

In his autobiography, From Third World to First , Yew describes as at one time, back in 1960, his village was in the position to march alone on the path of history and progress. They remember the enormous difficulties of facing such a situation: There are books that teach you how to build a house, how to repair engines. But I've never seen one that says how to build a nation based on a collection disparate Chinese immigrants, Indians, British and Dutch as the West Indies and build a future when the previous economic role there, as a military warehouse in the region to the British Empire, suddenly disappears.

difficult at the time of independence, Singapore was already an important port in Southeast Asia but, at the same time, its economic base was weak, based only on a very basic logistical services. In two decades this heterogeneous group of people achieved a dramatic transformation from being an extremely poor and poor society to achieve a level of prosperity equal to that of any advanced country. As Yew his book entitled From Third World to First .

For this, the habits of Singapore set out to systematically and radically change the face of the island, their social structures and also would reform a fragile economy, an effort of an intensity and dedication, at least, spectacular. And no regrets. But what is truly remarkable is that this was the result of a form of government supported by systematic planning that drew the best advantages of geographic and economic situation relatively favorable.

territorial transformation incardinaría Singapore in overall economic planning. That process would begin with the establishment of zoning and compartmentalisation of space very strict, which has been produced specifically planned development phases and in which the enlightened elite in power have neglected the real needs of the population. From a simple port economy, the first evolve to a space-based industrial low wages and a disciplined work force, then later would incorporate an intensive industry talent and knowledge, to bet finally become a commercial node and central services for Southeast Asia.

in 1960 would create a public body, the Housing and Development Board (HDB, with full powers for land management, with reference to what would have been done about it in Britain and the Netherlands especially . A bureaucracy intelligent and very well organized initially directed to the needs of housing and space for production, manufacturing concentrated in huge multi-storey structures, close to the renovated port facilities. HDB for decades guided the transformation process involving an initial many international experts. As the Dutch Winsemius, a former finance ministry official, involved in the re-industrialization of the Netherlands to represent a crucial role in the planning process of economic change on the island until 1980. And urban planners and architects as Charles Abrams and Fumihiko Maki, a prominent member of the Japanese Metabolists.

Today, the Dutch would look admiringly what happened in Singapore. Megacities Foundation Nederland invited in November 2002 to Dr. Liu Thai-Kerr, urban planning consultant's Republic of China, to give one of its annual conferences to be entitled Urbanising Singapore: Optimising resources. There Steef Beuys, the Ministry of Spatial Planning, the famous VROM, paralleled Singapore as a model to imitate metropolitan development.

While Singapore is a positive effort to overcome a very poor growing conditions, while also establishing a pattern of geographic colonization high unsustainable long term. The contemporary metropolis, in order to function, represent the highest concentration of plundered resources globally and managed at specific points on the planet while systematically devastating the land surface. Machinery would be necessary and essential to the operation of advanced capitalism. The problem is that global fortified cities, where life reaches a high comfort level, gradually reduce their numbers to a few enclaves. This, with the consideration of the extent of poverty worldwide and also to the rest of the metropolitan and even within the same megaregiones prosperous.

However, the metropolitan island continues to be admirable as an expression of extreme degree of sophistication has reached that tecnobiosfera we inhabit.

weeks ago, Babelia , the cultural supplement of El Pais newspaper, celebrated its thousandth weekly appearance with a library of proven interventions people in the world of global culture. There appeared reflections de dos miembros significativos del panorama espectacular de la arquitectura contemporánea: Zaha Hadid y Norman Foster.

<---

La primera titulaba su aportación -redactada en colaboración con Patrick Schumacher- como Edificios adaptables , mientras el segundo deliberaba sobre El futuro de la arquitectura , en un extenso artículo personal. De alguna manera, ambos reflejaban ahí maneras diametralmente opuestas de entender el trabajo de los arquitectos y su aportación al progreso colectivo.

Mientras Zaha Hadid manifiesta una forma de entender la architecture as one of the Fine Arts, focusing mainly on aesthetic expression, Norman Foster has been characterized throughout its long history and a deep confidence in the ability of technology to overcome the problems of humanity.

Portrait of Zaha Hadid. Michael Craig, 2008. National Portrait Gallery

Hadid and Schumacher organized their discourse on architecture necessary from a selective reflection on the issues that currently threaten us and demand a collective response immediately. Are based on the finding evidence of the finitude and fragility of the planet and throwing a celebration of innovation as a tool for ecological sustainability.

Following the argument of the text would shed its commitment to the development of cities and those areas that offer the best conditions for the development of culture and life in common. Propose stimulating productivity, creativity and innovation as a mechanism to promote the advancement of humanity. Arguments to frame a bid essentially communicative conception of the architecture of collective institutions and places.

In the article discussed, led by the architect, the speech then goes on to make a presentation on economic developments in Western societies, from production practices that advocate the mass production of undifferentiated goods to the enhancement of the contemporary organization that adjective as determined following post-Fordist economy ideologues contemporary follow Schumpeter . Hadid presents postfordism as a positive argument to provide flexibility and constructive space, specialized forms of architecture.

Another ideological resources in the text for an architecture appoggiatura obviously particularly his own-is the appropriation of scientific language linked to the complexity and the mechanisms that regulate the interaction of organizational structures. Something similar happens with references to techniques and systems for information processing in situations unintelligible or difficult to understand.

But all the arguments drawn from other subjects near or far down in the fraud when Hadid and Schumacher make the leap in proposing a final artistic movement, the ultimate solution for the advancement of architecture, which called parametric . A new architectural style which would replace the outdated and postmodernism and deconstruction of the 80 and 90 of the twentieth century.

According to them, postfordism spatial patterns require new, adaptable, diverse and integrated in the new economy that could be resolved from that parametric is advocated. This new formalism argues that all the elements of architecture and urbanism integrate different linguistic construction to be able to adapt and be flexible to the changing environment. Faced with rigid geometric forms and simplistic, the new aesthetic is advertised parametric designs would be based on malleable and dynamic adapted to changing contexts. The variation and uncertainty would be formal and compositional resources essential for a new style that presents itself as universal.

Finally, the text entitled adaptable buildings, going to make a direct apology for the very architecture of their authors. Adequate representation of these ideas at the forefront of the evolution of architecture. You remember to do some work already planned and carried out in Spain, as called Spiral Tower to Barcelona and the Bridge Pavilion at Expo Zaragoza 2008.

Over time, I had the opportunity to visit some buildings of the architect, attracted by the brilliance of his imagery, and accompanied by other colleagues also captivated by a photo spread endlessly by professional journals . In particular, several years ago we were going around the famous furniture company Vitra in Weil am Rhein, where he built the first building designed by Zaha Hadid, an alleged fire station to the factory. Walking along the distorted space and extremely difficult in its execution, we see injustice an architecture conceived as a mere sculpture visited and whose usefulness is questionable if not merely impossible. I think this building has never shown actually used. A clear example of the absurdity of this architecture based solely on the absurd and arbitrary imagery.

Something similar happens with the Zaragoza Bridge Pavilion, a trademark claim, which, in turn, contained a spectacular exhibition on water and that communicated nothing. Currently, this work over and whimsically in the formalization of complex structure, is in a state of abandonment and exhaustion that led to City Council to hold a competition of ideas to establish what may be a function appropriate for a waste container, a practical use for that space impracticable and covered over the river Ebro

This is spectacular and the architecture design advertising coincides with marketing strategies, dedicated to the dissemination of corporate brands and highly urban- in vogue in the last decade, starkly reflecting the sale of the unnecessary and thus extends a unacceptable waste of scarce financial resources groups.

In my opinion, the approach is Norman Foster radically different as part of a more humanistic ideological position in search of broad collective benefit, trust in technology research to solve technical problems arising from contemporary threats. Foster in his article on the future of architecture want to do a prospective on more solid foundations.

Like previous attempts to explain the contemporary context by drawing questions relating to the crisis of resources that constitute a major challenge to the survival of humanity in the coming decades. His social vision reflected in its argument for the elimination of the gap between countries that have goods and those who suffer from poverty. To do this in one of the first paragraphs of his article suggests, wrongly in my view, a massive increase in production and consumption.

is this, a first relevant issue notes that referred to a dwindling energy supply, which the architect is to emphasize and which strives to direct the weight of his argument for a necessary transformation of architecture. Too bad they are swindled or circumvent other relevant issues are also related to the increasing scarcity of materials premiums, recurring food shortages and the unfairness of the distribution systems and tax expertise. All factors that are stimulated from the current organization of global economic system.

Foster The central idea in this text provides a comprehensive review of architecture and urbanism allow greater savings and energy efficiency. One area of \u200b\u200breflection that their professional team has devoted much thought and effort, together with the engineers who work with them. The proposed revolutionary ways to use solar energy and the study of the environmental conditions for the best available cooling and insulation of the building, led to Foster and partners to innovate on the spatiality of architecture on the basis stronger than those of the Iraqi architect. Other considerations associated with proposed and have their interest focus on water management and waste, always bet the maximum intensity, efficiency and recyclability.

Foster represents a successful alternative to the powerful front engineering consultancies British, and an evolution from traditional studies of small-scale architecture, which over the years has been consolidated with a large team, very well structured and efficient, producing an architecture with a high technical and aesthetic formalization acceptable based on the direct expression of the related technology. But then, beyond the organization and procedures, the philosophical foundations of Foster and Partners be better aligned with the positive developments that need to be undertaken in the field of the built environment. At least in the advanced countries.

Another interesting reflection is included in this article about the future is referred to the prospects of the development. Considers necessary to act in the transformation of the current organization of cities, correcting the problems created by sprawl and unsustainable in individual car use. For him the most appropriate mobility would be related to the stimulation of greater density and compactness in urbanized areas and the promotion of the retrieved surfaces for pedestrians.

The current bid for the construction of new Masdar City in Abu Dhabi, would be a group response to these concerns Foster on how to achieve a more urban responsible consumption of resources. The slogan used, zero consumption of coal, an idea reflected in the building energy self-sufficiency and mobility that is very respectable.

While it is clear that only from the architecture can not be resolved in its entirety the serious threats that plague humankind, especially I think it has become clear that I value more positively, the intellectual effort of Standard Foster formal pyrotechnics that Zaha Hadid. --->
