Master of arts

Article Abstract:

Buildings can be art in their own right, according to UK Arts Council Senior Architecture Officer John Bell. He feels that there should be opportunity to invest some capital in the post-completion educational potential of buildings. He also emphasizes the importance of allowing people to know more about buildings themselves and to be aware of design considerations. He aims to make architecture art by encouraging greater cooperation between architects and artists at an early stage in design.
