The Flatiron Building in New York City is a triangular 22-story, 285-foot-tall (86.9 m) steel-framed landmarked building. The distinctive triangular shape of the Flatiron Building, designed by Chicago architect Daniel Burnham and built-in 1902, allowed it to fill the wedge-shaped property located at the intersection of Fifth Avenue and Broadway.

1962: Norman Foster and Richard Rogers at Yale School of Architecture. After graduating from the University of Manchester’s School of Architecture and City Planning in 1961, Foster won the Henry Fellowship to the Yale School of Architecture, where he earned his master’s degree, and where he met fellow architecture student Richard Rogers. Upon returning to England, Rogers and Foster formed the architectural firm Team 4 with Su Brumwell and Wendy Cheesman. Their practice quickly earned a reputation for high-tech industrial design.

The son of a wealthy Chicago business owner, Frederick Robie was just 28 years old in 1907 when he hired Frank Lloyd Wright to design a house for his young family. Robie had a budget of $60,000, (about $1.5 million today) and Wright created the house and custom furnishings for less than that, bringing the project in for $58,500. With its projecting cantilevered roof eaves and use of Roman brick to emphasize the horizontal, the Robie House went on to become an architectural icon, today considered the best example of Wright's Prairie style.

What is the future of the Architects and Architecture in the Artificial Intelligence world?

The integration of artificial intelligence (A.I.) in the field of architecture is expected to have a significant impact on the future of architects and architecture. A.I. is becoming an integral part of architectural practice but do not replace emotions, yet. Is our profession at risk of even extinction?

It's a fact that with the help of A.I., architects can handle more projects than ever before, which leads to increased productivity and efficiency. A.I. can also automate repetitive tasks, allowing architects to focus on more complex and creative aspects of their work, such as visualization tools and client Interaction Management.
But there are a global concerns about the impact of A.I. on job security in our field of architecture. Some "experts" believe that A.I. generated buildings could put jobs at risk. However, it is important to note that A.I. is expected to augment rather than replace the role of architects, allowing them to focus on higher-level tasks that require creativity and critical thinking.

Fortunately, the role of human creativity is still indispensable. It just depends on common sense to know how to separate these two worlds.
