==//The plagiarism in architecture is something very serious. Is like a cheat of a art master. Is the most unfair and immoral in this profession. We know that the greats ideas come to us not often, and a plagiarism of that great idea is the biggest mistake that someone can do. I think that the legal consequences are the less important here because architecture is about creation and imagination, not about money and glory. I think that the money and the glory are the causes that the plagiarism exist but luckily for us that type of action is almost extinguished in architecture because is very difficult to do.//==

They say that the city is the ultimate expression of the design, and that it may affect the economy situation of the country. Is because of that they are developing a city project based in innovative and sustainable design called Biopoli. This project has been developing by architects, urban planners and Scientifics. They want to achieve a unic model city in the world, well planned and sustainable for the future, and to get it they need a new, creative and innovate design process.
