On the one hand the mass of people look for a decent dwelling, and this question is of burning importance.
On the other hand the man of initiative, of action, of thought, the leader, demands a shelter for his meditations in a quiet and sure spot; a problem which is indispensable to the health of specialized people.
Painters and sculptors, champions of the art of to-day, you who have to bear so much mockery and who suffer so much indifference, let us purge our houses, give your help that we may reconstruct our towns. Your works will then be able to take their place in the framework of the period and you will everywhere be admitted and understood. Tell yourselves that architecture has indeed need of your attention. Do not forget the problem of architecture.
