The architect's “how” of implementing change in the community:
0. Asses Need
1. Find Precedent
2. Educate/ Sell the idea
3. Address Politics
4. Address Design
5. Identify Partners
6. Respond to Existing Conditions
Affinity group, did I leave one out? Others, what are your comments on the sequential order, relevancy of each item? Does anyone have specific examples of a successful completion of any of the above items?

It was COLD in Boston!
A discussion of architectural topics with a Distance Master of Architecture student. The program is a new addition at Boston Architectural College.

About Me
Fabric and Urbanism
"When we look around the city, we notice that its architecture mostly consists of hard, sharp, cold, inorganic materials. And we live in an environment where straight lines predominate. Because such an environment is strange when compared to nature, so different from natural forms, people who live in such places experience imbalance. Membrane structure, however, is our “trump card” to create balance and to restore, regenerate and reconstruct the city."
-Mr. Keizo Sataka in an interview by Kikuko Tagawa, Return to Balance, in Fabric Architecture: Jan/Feb 2007 page 21
