ACF - Architecture Corporate Foresight

"Formal beauty will vanish behind features which make an area conducive for networked use". Daring prophecies, like this by American network designer Adam Greenfield, can have both frightening and stimulating effects on architects. This is because the artistic aspect of their work would, given such an assertion, be pushed far into the background. But at the same time, detachment from formal design-oriented usage-creations, could also have the effect of bringing the functional aspects of space usage radically into the foreground, and provide the architecture industry with completely new perspectives. It's the case that our generation-oriented technology has plenty of innovation potential in this area.
