Thanks to the criticism that architecture has done, we finally have realized what you can bring: Successful responses given time. Thus, denying what architecture has led to the first decade of the century, designers want to reconnect with society, recover a dialogue with users and citizens which was lost. Sustainable and future architecture must be based on economic construction and allow to accept more than one use, so they can mold to future needs.
