Trans 20 Relevanz - CITYSPEAK!

  • Markus Jung

Press/Media: Article/Feature

Description

trans 20 will explore the self-image and public image of the discipline. In view of recent political and economic turmoil as well as increasing individualization, the questions of the significance and role of architecture will be addressed in the next issue of trans, entitled «relevance». The image of architects seems unclear and their role in society rather controversial. «Relevance» means being both important and significant in a particular context. This context is temporal and in constant change, just like the relevance of architecture and architects.
