MICROFICHE COPY AVAILABLE IN ARCHIVES AND ROTCH. Includes bibliographical references (p. 81-85). A socially responsible role for architecture and architects is one which consciously responds to a particular set of socio-cultural values. These values, regardless of interpretation, are in a state of constant change. In the modern context, various forces have accelerated this change. Therefore an architecture which either reflects or responds to change creates more meaningful environments. This becomes increasingly necessary. Through an analysis of three dwellings. characteristics of forms are found which respond well to change. These are 1) Multi-functional versus differentiated. 2) Configurative versus figurative. 3) Complex images and elements versus free eclecticism. by Nina Kim.
