Abstract
In our ever-changing world, the role of architecture and designer is constantly adapting to a new criteria. The principals of design have changed in many ways throughout history, but the constant has always been that designed space is intended for the bodies that will occupy it. I believe that the understanding of how architecture can affect our state of mind through perception, social understanding and sensory awareness gives us, as designers, the ability to create spaces that surpass an architecture of the time, and create a space that people will identify with and give meaning to.
