3. Manifesto
- 1 – To break down existing power structures in society and the established architectural
profession in order to address the dichotomy between architectural education and
practice
- 2 – To ensure a greater understanding of the social, political and historical context of the
sites/communities our projects are based in
- 3 – To avoid viewing buildings as abstract commodities, instead acknowledging their
value in the everyday lives of many
- 4 – To be deeply engaged with the many tradesmen, crafts people and local businesses
involved in the realisation of our designs to ensure a consolidated final output
- 5 – To devote our projects to those unable to openly express their identity without fear of
repercussions
- 6 – To promote a non-hierarchical approach to the design process, understanding the
need, however, for leaders to guide a unified approach
- 7 – To share the responsibility of any mistakes made and the credit for any achievements
gained
