Abstract

The time is ripe to redirect architecture to the production of a human living environment, which celebrates the human sensory and corporeal qualities in both their social and individual expressions. Architecture and the urban environment need to be thought as one fluid entity, where one part influences and changes the other. The real author of a building is expected to be a collaborative interdisciplinary group. Design, as traditionally thought will be just one of the parts of the process. Therefore, students should develop a collaborative attitude. They need to be reminded to the corporal and sensory human qualities, which need to be essentially addressed.
