  2. ‘There is a fundamental inter-dependence between buildings and the lives of people…. “Almost all our activities , whether collective or as individuals, are only made possible by the buildings we inhabit. So fundamental are buildings to our lives that we often take them for granted and regard them as simply the given backdrop to our day to day existence. But buildings are not given, they are consciously made and how they are made profoundly affects the quality of our lives. How buildings are made, the quality of their design and of the built environments they help to shape should, then, be a matter of concern to us all.” Introduction to a Policy on Architecture for Scotland The Museum of Scotland
