Shared Purpose is a key theme in architecture. Successful buildings often embody shared values, pursuits and even dreams about the future. They connect with us. And they connect us with each other thereby forming the basis for community. We hope that this blog will be a place for architects to feel a sense of solidarity about the calling of their profession to work towards this notion of Shared Purpose as well as a place for everyone to reflect on how buildings and places are an influential backdrop for our lives.
