At the close of the 19th century, the funding of architecture was enriched by a new paradigm: that of the wealthy patron and philanthropist, who financed buildings through a sense of moral and social duty.
This resulted in a number of grand public buildings, spanning cultural, educational and political institutions: the Museum of Modern Art, Carnegie Music Hall, a huge number of Carnegie Libraries and even the UN Headquarters would not have been possible without the generosity of these men. Where are gifts like these today? Are there modern versions of people like Carnegie and Rockefeller? In the 21st century, an age of encroaching corporatism and “the one percent”, it might be easy to believe that this form of construction funding is dead. Rural Studio. Design + Build. Everyone knows the old adage and has most likely been stung by its inevitable truth.
What happens, eventually, is that the other shoe unfortunately falls; the truth rears its ugly head and leaves us with egg on our face.

Photographie. Formes inspiration archi. Portail:Architecture et urbanisme. L'architecture est à la fois l'art, le savoir-faire, d'imaginer, de concevoir et de réaliser des édifices, et à la fois l'objet résultat de cet art.
L'étendue de l'architecture est celle de tout ce que l'humanité a pu construire en structures et en espaces pensés, organisés, habitables ou utilitaires, monumentaux ou vernaculaires, religieux ou militaires, etc. L'urbanisme est quant à lui un champ disciplinaire et professionnel recouvrant l'étude du phénomène urbain, l'action d'urbanisation, l'organisation et la planification de la ville et de ses territoires. Il a pour vocation de règlementer et organiser le cadre de vie dans un souci de respect mutuel des différents habitants, du respect de l'environnement des villes et du milieu rural qu'il cherche à aménager, développer et à optimiser pour obtenir un meilleur fonctionnement et améliorer les rapports sociaux.
