ARHITECTURA STAR VERSUS ARHITECTURA SUSTENABILĂ
STAR ARCHITECTURE VERSUS SUSTAINABLE ARCHITECTURE

Summary/Abstract: Using a critical examination of the buildings raised lately it can be concluded that they are obviously influenced by three factors: new materials, experimenting with new forms and use of sustainability principles. Star architect is a neologism which is intended to link the term superstar that is generally applied to a creative profession, like the profession of architect. Common to all definitions studied, is the way in which the production of a star architect is perceived, as a symbolic element, special, unique, iconic element and fact that the main feature for it is novelty. This term defines an architect with great influence in the built environment from the point of view of the proposed projects and the great influence he has on developers and local authorities. Today, star architects are called to bring more aesthetic and practical design knowledge, and at the same time to mediate the relationship between the developer and the existing legal framework, not least for the extra media provided their names.
