Architecture is...

the medium through which we live our lives
structuring the spaces we are born in, learn how to live within and outside of
the spaces we drive around, walk through, run through, sleep and dream in 
it shapes and defines enclosure and conversely functions as that which we measure against in order to develop our perception of the absence of enclosure 
it creates our very idea and awareness of what space is

architecture is what the context of our memories consist of - the stage and setting for the most important days of our lives, and the collective mist surrounding all the days long forgotten 
it grows, evolves, and adapts as dynamically as the living population that inhabits it - a symbiotic relationship that inescapably affects who we are, where we have come from, and who we will grow to be.
