Ethical Standards

Ethical Standards what is this? what are they?
Are there standards we should follow as people? designers? Architects?
As design students there are certain types of criteria that we have to meet for studio projects. However, we are not limited to the criteria of these projects their are other standards we should meet. In return I think a lot of the projects that we are doing now in studio have to deal more with people and less about creating something cool. If anything the skills we own/ possess in school help to prepare us for future years in the profession. One standard all of us can follow is simple the golden rule "just treat others as one would like to be treated". I think this is simple enough for everyone to understand. With this we can help others out. There won't be people trying to sabotage someones project. If anything is impossible theirs a way to make it possible as designers we just haven't got to that point yet. I believe we obligated to push our ideas ourselves. Rightfully its your ideas about design and only you yourself that can push it forward. Afterall we have to not mislead people as to what we are doing. I think we are obligated to help our professors understand what we are talking about designing. Also I think its their obligation to give us feedback on what we can improve on the design or let us know when something isn't working. Most importantly though i think our projects have to become realistic in some sense. With the intent to design we have the ability to shape our world around us, only with the clearance of the client though. So out of everything i think one of the most important things that we need to possess while in school is how to clearly represent our ideas on a project or architectural design in general. Its important to represent our ideas clearly cause if we dont then we are reaching no one. If we don't reach anyone then whats the point of it all. On that note then architecture is just like my favorite quote "Just cause its a monkey doesn't mean it has to dance!"
