Sharing the Beats – Urban Projectization

Not only Hassan Fathi, but many architects had visions about how architecture would serve the people.. Not necessarily that all nice concepts are practically successful.. Yes, architecture by definition is a wealthy-application of living; yet, the undeniable need for shelter has its own parameters, which H. Fathi and others could not meet.. Therefore, their inspirational concepts are good for textbooks, for the wealthy to procure, but not for the ordinary to afford..
On parallel, H. Fathi was not an urban planner, but a decorated architect; who had inspired my researches and trails.. Urbanists are who create happy settlement which are sustainable and livable, with margins for the occupiers to innovate and adapt..
