the great forgetting.

"_an architecture that dovetails into its site at not just the anthropocentric scale but at ecological scales, microcosmic and cosmoscopic scales.

_an architecture that has the capacity to reboot torn ecologies with helpful architectonic scaffolds, which dismantle themselves when all is well again.

_an architecture that traps more carbon than its environmental footprint. An architecture that contributes to the health of its users and environment.

_an architecture that hasn’t forgotten history, or how we are all different.

_an architecture that rejoices in that difference.

_an architecture whose exquisite tailoring is imbued with nuances that resonate with familiar and non-familiar worlds.

_an architecture that knows where it is and why it is and what it has to offer, but doesn’t deny its difference and ours."
