Critical Commentary

After effect of manifesto

The concept that Johnson proposed is totally odds with the idea applied in that era which launched postmodernist architecture.

Your thought/opinion on the ideals

Seven crutches are not a recipe for good architecture; sometimes we have to play by the rules and accept limitations. Instead of fighting the crutches or surrendering completely, we could use them as tools and perhaps start listening to our creative selves. The significance of the impression is determined by our artistic decisions to create something as a direct experience.

Conclusion

Many of the characteristics of the crutches Johnson so harshly criticises are tenets of the architectural profession and crucial components of the licencing procedure.
