Eine Plattform für die Wissenschaft: Bauingenieurwesen, Architektur und Urbanistik
Contrary to the impression given throughout this issue of 2, the future of the architectural profession is not to be found in scaling down to the level of household products and fashion items. So argues London‐based architect Gilles Retsin, who teaches at the Bartlett School of Architecture. While embracing transdisciplinarity and engagement with multiple scales in architectural practice and education, he sees these as evidence of a more research‐based turn, rather than an abandonment of architects' key calling. Although also opening up the profession to a product rather than service‐based business model, small‐scale objects essentially offer a context for experimentation with new technology that then begs to be scaled up.
