In today's context, the architect is no longer just a creator: they are also a mediator, a mentor, and a designer. The complexity of this context requires the architect to consider numerous parameters: construction economics, regulations and compliance with standards, the durability and stability of the structure, the thermal and ecological efficiency of the building, and, of course, the comfort and aesthetics of the home.

All these elements constitute an essential foundation for the development of a project. The complexity of a project is independent of its size: the construction of a large industrial site may raise fewer issues than the renovation of a small country house. Generally speaking, a simple project is primarily the result of good management and a fluid relationship between the various stakeholders involved in the project, rather than the physical size of a building.

Beyond technical and creative skills, architects have a professional duty: they are responsible for the public interest in matters of living environment, integration into the territory, and respect for the environment. They must act ethically, transparently, and responsibly toward their clients, users, and society as a whole. This duty is expressed through the constant search for a balance between innovation, budgetary constraints, respect for heritage, and anticipation of future challenges, particularly climate and social issues.

Architects thus play a significant role in the sustainable transformation of living spaces. Their mission goes beyond simply designing a building: they contribute to building a more habitable, fairer, and more sensitive world to human needs.

Mies van der Rohe's famous phrase "Less is more"* applies to architecture as a whole: simplicity must accompany every architectural approach. Architecture should not be perceived as a luxury, but as an essential component of daily life, combining comfort and aesthetics.
