The document discusses architecture and the idea of choice in building design. It notes that modern cities are becoming more homogeneous globally despite cultural differences. The buildings shown emphasize being "responsible" and "sustainable". The document suggests that companies developing sustainable building materials and systems will be most successful going forward. A variety of building projects from around the world are displayed that utilize sustainable materials from ETEM, including curtain walls, windows, and ventilated systems.

2. Architecture has always represented the idea of choice.
In a global world, cities are beginning to look more and more alike,
even though people of different cultures, born all over the world live
in them. In London, Dubai, New York or Amsterdam, we come across
the same characteristics.
Has our right of choice been eliminated?
If we examine the modern city closely, we notice that our choice
is not simply between colour, form or scope. The buildings are now
“responsible”, “sustainable”, “green”, revealing the deeper spirit of
their creators.
Which companies will deliver the materials for the buildings of the
future?
Most probably, these will be the companies that develop sustainable
systems and concepts allowing more people to gain advantage from
them.
This mantra remains unchanged.
The new and different is still inspiring, because it challenges the mind
and demands clear engineering and architectural solutions. New way
of thinking. Among the variety of personalities, concepts and
identities a new code is being developed – the code of modern
architecture.
The “adaptive façade” broadens the idea of choice. The materials and
the systems have been designed to solve the challenges of the
modern city.
And our choice is no longer local or cultural, it is global.
We are waiting for you.
