This site is meant to fit into the growing attention this period is receiving and to provide a wide audience with the opportunity to consider and/or reconsider works from this period.  It is important that to give consideration to the following items in relation to this period including:

• seeing the architectural/design value of a work;
• considering the local, national & international cultural context that is embodied within the work;
• considering the relationship with a physical context;
• considering a range of scales, types and quality;
• considering the physical resource and its embodied energy;
• considering how works have/have not evolved over time.

All of these goals are connected to the larger goal of looking at the potential role these works can play in the future.  It is far too simplistic to simply describe a work as good or bad and this site is not intended to evaluate this.  It is also important not to suggest that these works are not meant to evolve.  The only way works survive is through change, be it physical, within their relationship to a larger context or cultural change.  Each change requires due consideration of where a work’s value lies in order to go forward.  Ideally the discussions and documents on this site will contribute to this consideration.
