But I believe that these arguments simply need to be counteracted by sensible, practical, business, management and financial matters relating to the everyday practice of getting things built. Running a profitable practice is key.About AustinAustin Williams is the author of several books, including Enemies of Progress: The Dangers of Sustainability, New Chinese Architecture: 20 Women Building the Future, and co-author of The Lure of the City: From Slums to Suburbs.

Typically they were created and organised by the aristocratic ladies, to hear the ideas of the great thinkers of the time, to debate their meaning, for entertainment, because they believed ideas were important and because they wanted to know where the world was going, and of course to flirt. The Salon was central to the intellectual ferment of the end of 18th Century. They hosted the great thinkers of the time; Diderot, Rousseau, Voltaire. They were the scenes of excitement, outrage, and the shock of the new in a time when ‘the new’ still seemed possible. They signalled a time when the future was still an unwritten book.The East Midlands Salon is organised in homage to those days which only came to end with the eruption of the French Revolution and the arrival of a new constellation: the age of revolutions. Many historians think that Salons helped develop the ideas that ushered in that age. The East Midlands Salon, like those that currently exist in Birmingham Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Sheffield, New York, Zurich and Lisbon, is inspired by the Institute of Ideas." } ] } ] ```
