It captured what many of us in the architectural profession have been feeling for some time, that architectural expertise is frequently undervalued, and our time is treated as expendable.
I wonder what more could be achieved if the architectural profession acted truly collectively more often?
Is the title ‘architect’ still fit for purpose and valued in the world we now occupy?
RIBA is also making efforts through initiatives such as the Future Architects programme and the review of procurement practice.
I still love the idea of being called an architect, and I do not believe the title will disappear within my lifetime.
