Creative expression is more of an individual act rather than a collaborative one, hence 'creativity' does not happen as we think it needs to. So how do the architect deal with the lack of creative expressions in their everyday?
The big question: Is being an architect your destiny?
However the topic explores the missing 'creativity' in architecture, reflecting on education and practice, and how it is different. Accepting the 'professional identity' of the architect in the industry, we know the architect in that context. What does 'creativity' play in that identity? Probably not a lot as it is no more just the individual creative expression but the focus is on building, which is just putting things together in collaboration.
