architecture/建筑/(jiànzhù)

A: I heard you are a fan of architectural design. Have you heard that recently a lot of architects are paying attention to the topic of "future architecture?" 

听说你是一个建筑设计爱好者,那你有没有听说过最近很多建筑设计师都关注的"未来建筑"这个话题?

(tīnɡshuō nǐ shì yīɡè jiànzhù shèjì àihǎozhě, nànǐ yǒuméiyǒu tīnɡshuōɡuò zuìjìn hěnduō jiànzhù shèjìshī dōu ɡuānzhù de "wèiláijiànzhù" zhèɡè huàtí.)

B: Yeah, I've heard of that. I think this idea can definitely have a lot of different explanations. 

我知道,我认为这个概念可以有不同的解释。

(wǒ zhīdào, wǒ rènwéi zhèɡè ɡàiniàn kěyǐ yǒu bùtónɡde jiěshì.)

A: Really? How about you tell me about it? 

是吗,你说来听听呢?

(shìma, nǐ shuōlái tīnɡtīnɡ ne?)

B: For architects who value the aesthetics of architecture, they may pay more attention to the design and use of new materials. Similarly, for those architects who value environmental conservation, future architecture may be more of a focus on chasing after sustainable development. 

对某些着重建筑美感的设计师,他们可能对于新型材料的设计和使用更专注。同样,对于注重环保的设计师,未来建筑可能更多指的是一种对可持续发展性的追求。

A: There is an architecture conference this week, let's go together. 

这周会有一个建筑领域的峰会,我们一起去吧。
