The Architect's Responsibility: Beyond Private Institutions in Public Space Design

Buildings serve as important public performances for both users and passersby, emphasizing that architects must extend their responsibilities beyond fulfilling a client's program. While the client's needs provide a starting point, architects must interrogate these requirements to consider the complex interplay of individual, institutional, historical, and contextual factors. By recognizing history as a foundational element in architectural design, architects can create innovative solutions that resonate with the broader public, ultimately redefining their role in shaping our built environment.

Presentation Transcript

  1. “Buildings are not idiosyncratic private institutions: they give public performances both to the user and the passerby. Thus the architect's responsibility must go beyond the client's program and into the broader public realm. Though the client's program offers the architect a point of departure, it must be questioned, as the architectural solution lies in the complex and often contradictory interpretation of the needs of the individual, the institution, the place and history. The recognition of history as a principle constituent of the program and an ultimate model of legitimacy is a radical addition to the theories of the Modern Movement." Richard Rogers
