OCA as
Prototype Maker |
|
Architecture is a reflection of its society. Therefore, architects must be on top of the trend and changes of the times and suggest prototypes to reflect it. |
Speculator |
|
An architect must be capable of objective rational reasoning to identify a single aspect of the time. Simultaneously, he or she must have the leisure to simply take in the beauty of nature. It is at this moment that architecture serves as a most minimal tool for meditation. |
Organizer of Living |
|
An architect’s work reflects the many different ways of living: as an individual, as part of a bigger community, and greater still as part of a town or a city. |
Urban Designer |
|
There is no boundary between architecture and the city. |
Public Architect |
|
As society becomes polarized, there is greater emphasis placed on equality for the poor and the general public. In order to build a healthy society, the role of public architects is very important. |
Exhibition Commissioner |
|
An architect communicates with the public in many ways. Aside from communicating through erected buildings, exhibitions are the most integrated form of communication. |
