Do we ever stop building?

'Building...is a process that is continually going on, for as long as people dwell in an environment. It does not begin here with a pre formed plan, and end there...with a finished artefact. The "final form" is but a fleeting moment in the life of any feature, when it is matched to a human purpose... For the most part we are not architects. For it is in the very process of dwelling that we build'
