Introduction - Approach
According to conference program, its interdisciplinary character and focus on some basic and essentials questions for human kind at the beginning of 21st century, we try to elaborate the similar relation between actual time-global issues, architecture and possible relation to education.
Architecture, apart from its autonomy, specific inbetween nature, technique and art, is inseparable of its social, cultural and environmental dimensions.
We emphasize responsibility of architects. We also underline some important elements for education in architecture, having in mind possible ones: - Architecture as a discipline in charge of creating universal and long lasting values - Architecture as a discipline inseparable from major practical means (technology, construction, techniques) - Architecture as a humanistic discipline capable of improving life quality and social relations
Globalism and obvious progress influence all aspects of contemporary life, and architecture as well, in both ways positive and negative.
- the digital development and the computer design technologies, advanced construction methods and techniques, use of new constructing materials-all these presuppose and offer a wide range of possibilities for creation and building
- easy and fast access to all information and data
We would like to emphasize some possible relation between three contextual elements of architecture
Environment
Architecture
People Society
Technology
We could say that is the coordinate system for each architect, and for education for sure: architecture its specific nature- discipline in itself, fully focused to the peoples needs technology based, environmentally oriented.
INSTEAD OF CONCLUSION
Is it possible to create an apartment or develop housing for people to feel themselves real human beings in it ? And further more: Is it possible to create working spaces and common public places for people, to feel themselves at home?
