description Architecture today, no longer reflects the limits of experimentation and innovation. An extremely low-tech art whose field of possibilities consists of choosing and using that which has already been done in the past. It is because of this that the key skill a designer should have is the ability to recognize the complexity in forms around them: cities have the widest programming opportunities for architecture, in the two-way relationship that is established from the city that takes form in architecture and an architecture that finds its place in the contemporary city. Thus, architecture has its foundation in hospitality, an element that differentiates it significantly from the design.
