"When Dutch architects Ben van Berkel and Caroline Bos (www.unstudio.com) said "Architects will be the fashion designers of the future," were they really saying something that at base is unethical in terms of it's promotion of planned obsolescence, or were they (correctly?) predicting that architects will soon be the consummate designers of all things that purposefully do not last?"

"Maybe a concerted effort to separate design from fashion is design's real next challenge."
--A Quondam Banquet of Virtual Sachlichkeit: Part III, p. 82.
