About the purpose of architecture: I absolutly agree with the podcast because I think that shelter is not only purpose for the architecture. This is extremely useful, it trascends this, is a cultural institution. It is used to make simple spaces into optimum spaces, it can take a basic ground and built a space suitable to any purpose.

About urban design as a career: Urban Design is the art of making places; the reason why there are so many places so badly designed is that the people designing them was only thinking about building something that the developer can sell quickly. I had also read about discussions of the kind mentioned on the original paragraph, where architects and planners argue about the roles of their two professions.
