The modern architecture allows us to make magnificent works using tools that we never imagined that they could exist. Virtual design studios accedes to the students today to have contact with outposts tools that give them the opportunity to understand better the design and show them a great variety of possibilities and experiences to learn at the same time that introduces them in a global market. It seems that the distance is not a problem anymore with the virtual design studies. The new architecture of the digital age grants to the students the possibility to be in contact and to make projects with any person who is anywhere in the world, synchronous or a synchronous (if it is required or not the presence of the person on-line). In addition, each participant of a project can be in charge of one part and have access too and participation in the process of the design of the whole project. Creations like those of William Mitchell and his “Red Line” and the one of the Dr. Vásquez with his “Infinite Room” (in where an illusion is created of which spaces that are at great distances it seemed that they were in the same quarter) make us live in a new stage of the digital technology that helps us facilitate the recreation of our ideas. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I think that the new technology today helps us make our projects in an economic way and to be in contact with people in the whole world. This kind of programs allows us to learn more new things and they help us to introduce to us in a more global space. Particularly there is a part of the article that catches my attention in which it says:" The catch is predicting whether VDS will isolate students from a sense of place and materiality, or if it will provide future architects the tools to reconcile communication environments and physical space ". It is true that tools like these facilitate the work to us, but they could also isolate us from the reality in which we live. Everything must have a balance but it is not possible to deny that the virtual design is a necessary instrument and of much aid.
