WMK Architecture: Pioneers of innovative design
A
rchitecture is a passion, a
vocation, a calling – as well
as a science and a business.
It has been described as a social
art and also an artful science.
Architecture must be of the highest
quality of design. Architecture
provides, in the words of Marcus
Vitruvius, the great Roman architect
and historian, “firmness, commodity
and delight.” Architecture provides
a sense of place and support
of all types of human activity.
Architecture helps the man-made fit
in harmony with the environment
while promoting health and well-
being, enriching lives aesthetically
and spiritually, providing economic
opportunities, and creating a legacy
that reflects and symbolizes culture
and traditions.
