what architecture is...

...a subservient set of criteria that reacts to the stimuli of people, environment, and the ephemeral extents of experience.  It is a system taken for granted by the daily user, yet confined is its collaborators of design, realization and construction.  This limited subset of society makes decisions with the intent of creating better environmental conditions, or at least artistic works of wonder.  Architecture is thus the result, the solution to this massive equation, that is neither positive or negative, but left to live its lifetime as either prospect for the future or just another piece of rumble.
