    narrow definition of progress

    By MADianito

    With the Industrial Revolution, basically 5,000 years of progress was thrown out the window…People assume that in the 21st century buildings should be made of titanium, because we have a narrow definition of progress.
    Maybe a 21st-century building is made out of dirt used in an intelligent and beautiful way.

    -John Ochsendorf, MIT professor of civil engineering and architecture
