While
Victor Papanek scorned corporations in general,
calling their moral and ethical irresponsibility the "curse
of bigness", the Audubon initiative serves as an example
in contrast. Constructed in 1993, the Audubon building in Manhattan
is a living model of a healthy workplace through ecological
design.20 It demonstrates that individuals can empower the corporate
culture with the same principles applied to satisfying the needs
of indigenous societies in developing countries. Victor's principles
embraced the meaning that creation brings to our lives. He had
hopes that we could continue this creation for as long as our
earth could endure.
