| What Role Do Materials and Construction Systems Play in Democratizing Architecture? Posted: 21 Jun 2022 12:30 AM PDT  Wikkelhouse / Fiction Factory. Image Courtesy of Yvonne Witte "Architecture does not change anything. It's always on the side of the wealthy." With these words, Oscar Niemeyer referred to architecture as being a privilege mostly destined to the upper class – a statement that has historically proven to be true, even as some would like to deny it. Today, only 2% of all houses around the world are designed by architects. This is largely due to the fact that, to the average consumer, architect-designed homes continue to be perceived as expensive and esoteric products available only to this select few; a luxury that many cannot fathom to afford, especially as housing prices rise. Ultimately, this makes good design inaccessible for certain segments, forcing them to settle for precarious living conditions in standardized spaces that fail to take their needs into account (that is, if they even have access to housing).

Dowdell The American Institute of Architects has elected Kimberly Dowdell as the 100th president of the organization, making her the first Black woman to hold the position in AIA's 165-year history. Delegates at the AIA's annual meeting voted Dowdell to serve first as vice president for 2023. Afterward, she will become president in 2024. During her campaign for president, Dowdell has expressed her support for minorities, while also making clear that she wants to be an AIA president for all. Her platform is based on four key areas of interest: supporting architects in practice, creating a sense of belonging and ensuring access to the architectural profession and education, addressing climate concerns, and designing for the future, considering rapid technological advances. "I firmly believe that the AIA has the power and potential to better serve our profession" she declared in a video made prior to the election.
