almost 4 y.o. question

So what then is architecture? Is it a hard, 'simple',
'natural' protective
shell that engenders the continuation of life? Or is it a
soft formlessness
forever (re-)designing an applied shell it doesn't naturally
have?

[Middle English spawne, from spawnen, to spawn, from
Anglo-Norman espaundre, from Latin expandere. See expand.]
