In the mind of the architect

A three part series examining the process of architecture -- its philosophy and its essential relationship with people through the point of view of Australian architects. Pt. 1 explores the relationship between architect and client, looking at houses they design for government, big business and themselves. It also examines the fight between those who prefer innovation and those who want more conservative buildings. Pt. 2 explores issues surrounding public development. Architects must balance the desires of business clients with the obligation to the public good, with cities as the battleground. Pt. 3. From seemingly hopeless suburbs to a downtown hotel, this final segment visits the artistic potential of architecture. What gives an architect the confidence to build a great building? Is it a good site, tolerant neighbors, a gifted contractor or a brave client with lots of money?
