Looking Backward

Imagine that we are in the future: the year is 2070. Around the world, much attention is focused on the 50 years since the pandemic of 2020. It is also the year you have decided to retire. An architecture student has contacted you as part of their professional practice class to ask you to reflect on the last 50 years. Remembering that you were once in Pro Practice, in about 3000 words you survey the architectural, technological, social, and cultural changes and how they affected your practice.

Your submission for the final can take the form of the transcript of a hypothetical interview, an actual interviewwritten or on video–that you do with a classmate, a single narrative essay, or a short story, similar to The Machine Stops.

While this is clearly speculative, whatever changes, inventions, and innovations you describe should have some grounding in reality. For example, if you think well be in flying cars, be sure to research the state of that technology. Because you will need to do some research to predict the future, you should be sure to cite your sources.

For some inspiration and a sense of temporal symmetry, look back 50 years to 1970. Look for thru-lines and surprises.
