Stanley Tigerman comes from a different time, he says it himself – “This is all the ravings of a very old man“, he warns, “This is not my time, and I understand that.” Yet the discussion, produced by Black Spectacles, is fruitful for any generation of architects at any stage in their careers. Tigerman reflects on his own practice, on the advancement of technology and on the way in which the profession has changed in terms of ethics and design over the course of his own career guided by a series of questions from the audience.
