On the future of architecture

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: In postavantgarde culture, the future has become an object of desire and obvious value. The uncontested belief that every new thing should be accepted as an undoubted good lies at the heart of numerous utopias and speculations. Visions of the future in such utopias are usually associated with hyperscales and unusual shapes. The question of the future of architecture is largely turning into a problem of its substantial basis. Paradoxically, the full-fledged image of the future is seen as architecture made of stone. But it is not even about forms and substantiality, but about restoring the understanding of architecture in society, comparable to the understanding of architecture by the former aristocratic elite. The consumer of architecture is the whole humanity. As institutions of thought and activity will develop, so will the future of architecture.
