ARCHITECTURE.....It's All In Your Mind!

What is true is not fear of the required job but the confidence seen in the response.

The field of Architecture embodies so much ugliness that it must be on purpose. Is the word beauty ever uttered in schools of architecture anymore? Or are the design schools more interested in Hegel and Foucoult? The french philosophies of Post Modermism and Deconstructivism were nothing more to Architectural theory than another thing to rip off and splice into the lecture sermon. And how many times has a second year Grad student with the goatee, tat, shaved head and the three hundred dollar sunglasses said: "Yeah, but what is Beauty, man?"
