Environmentalism is replacing formalism in architecture says Joseph Grima
Young architects are rejecting cookie-cutter modernism in favour of approaches that prioritise conserving the earth s resources according to Joseph Grima, who has written a manifesto calling for a new type of non-extractive architecture.
Space Caviar co-founder Grima argued that architects increasingly see the discipline as a form of stewardship of the natural environment rather than a compositional exercise, as they become aware of the damage that construction is doing to the planet. There is a different attitude emerging, which is not based on the kinds of pre-conditions that might have been 100 years ago, said Grima, saying that modernism s top-down approach is increasingly being challenged.
