A New Movement: Architecture For The Public Good

They are challenging their entire profession to take the high design standards usually reserved for elite clients and systematically deliver them to society’s most vulnerable: to design hospital rooms that give the chronically ill a sense of control over their lives, libraries that will make children spend hours with a book, or simple structures that grant working immigrants new dignity. In other words, to convince ordinary people and those on the margins that architects don’t just make giant, radical shapes. They can make giant, radical change.
