Sustainability and humility both are important factors to be taken into consideration towards a better future in architecture and design. Sustainability is humility, in architecture and design we might have lost them at one point from the fading of vernacular architecture but as humans, we learn from our mistake and to move forward with that knowledge to sustainable and humble design. Vernacular might not have to always be embraced in every contemporary project but the main lesson in vernacular architecture is to understand and embrace the value and importance of local context and its cultural heritage.
