Marc Kushner is an American architect who works for HWKN architects and is also the co-founder and former CEO of Architizer, and in this video, he explains how architecture can convey feelings. He considers the discipline more than the regulation of zones or solving some equations or something like that.

From Kushner’s perspective, the public should engage in the architectural design system more than it does now, more so in the present era. In addition, he argues that there is need for feedback mechanisms like the social networks, whereby the public can be used to determine their views on the designs to be incorporated by the architects. His ultimate aim is to make structures more helpful to the populace then ever before. For more information, please refer to the video below:
