Values and Practices of Contemporary Architecture More and more “ordinary” buildings—those that are without any direct relation to centers of authority—are conceived initially as liable to become tomorrow's heritage. This intention is paradoxical because the status of monuments in general presupposes either a power relationship or the passage of time which confers memorial value. Possible explanations include, on the one hand, the changes relative to the division of labor necessary to architectural conception for public works and, on the other hand, the ambitions of some architects in a context of increased individualism within the profession. These explanations are more complementary than conflictual. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
