Architecture has changed irreparably in the past decade. For Architecture to move forward architects need to embrace new ideas and materials then apply it to their work. One of our main strategies (apart from design) is to find an ideal medium for collaborative problem solving. Occasionally we have to behave like rogue medics, specifying materials for uses other than that for which they were intended, or testing things out on ourselves. Such as the use of Augmented Reality, using virtual components to stand in for physical objects, AR can save on the fabrication and material costs of real-world prototypes. It appears that construction is finally beginning to pick back up, giving us the the opportunity to make really meaningful and efficient architecture.
