Extracted from the proposal:

听

"If eating, sleeping, taking a bath, talking with family, receiving visits, cooking, sheltering are activities of the universal act of dwelling, the twenty-first century has shown again that not everything has been said in this field.

听

It is undeniable that, until two decades ago the human being lived in his house and worked in a different place. This routine made him separate his productive life from the private one. The social of the intimate. Everything was easy to categorize.

听

Today those borders are erased at unthinkable speeds. The post-industrial era and the era of technology- at full blossom, if precise-confronts us with the paradigms that governed our behavior respect to architecture. It is very easy to dream if you have focused creativity, on how you will live in a no longer distant future.

听听

The futurists of today, the rigorous, those who seek to get away from the well-worn dystopia and programmed apocalypse, know that they are prone to get too close to the present in any of their lucubrations. Technology will surprise us every day, that is something that should not be doubt.

听The challenge of living consists in recovering the human. Everything that 鈥渢he machine to inhabit鈥�, refreshing invention of the twentieth century, forgot in order to transform us into production machines, it is urgent to recover. It is maybe better to say rediscover.

听

听The encounter, the conversation with the neighbor, the greeting and wishing good night remembering our names and those of the floor below. Providing our children with a childhood full of fantastic adventures and games in company, teaching them by example that it is important to live with the one next door and the one in front. To convey to them the importance of the practice of politics, of negotiation and tolerance.

Architecture - the new one - has a lot of work ahead."
