In dealing with the built environment, architecture as product becomes inherently
and largely framed within a society’s cultural lens.
Is architectural practice and the value of such role ever able to separate from that lens?
About the project
DCMNT is an ongoing research initiative looking to understand the infrastructures that support architectural practice across social contexts.
The goal of this investigation is to pinpoint the factors that justify the change in valuation of the architect’s role from culture to culture. Deepening the value proposition of architectural professionals around the world is the ultimate desired outcome.
