Jolly well done, the Interior Designers Association, for taking a consistent stand
They put the Chamber of Architects and Civil Engineers to shame. The Chamber is arguing against the location of the market stalls while at the same time lending its name and its participation to the selection process of the stall design.
The Malta Independent reports:
The Malta Interior Designers Association and its members have collectively decided to not participate in the EOI for the Valletta Market Stall Design, the association said in a letter to Economy Minister Chris Cardona. The association agrees with the opinions expressed this past week by the various stakeholders and industry professionals who believe the proposed location of the market is not suitable and out of context with the new entrance into Valletta, the association said.

This proves that many architects are only interested in making money, even if in the process they may harm the environment, buildings and the urban fabric.
At least one association with logic .
well done
Basically they are saying that even the most exquisite design would be out of place in an area which impinges on the Piano project’s space.
Good on them.
Well done MIDA
