There Is An Order To Our Environment,

An Architect Is Given A Program, Budget, Place, And Schedule. Sometimes The End Product Rises To Art - Or At Least People Call It That.

Generally People Are More Impressed With The Services And The Comfort Issues Than The Design.

I Used To Read More When I Was A Kid Than I Do Now. It Was All Sort Of Fuel For The Fire To Teach You How To Think And How To Make Things And It Informed The Architecture That I Was Doing. It's Better Coming In With That History And That Kind Of Knowledge And Depth Of Understanding Of Humanity That Is Very Important For Building Buildings - For Understanding People And How They Should Live And How You Could Make Your Lives Better And Stuff Like That.

I Never Said I Was Opposed To The Leed Program Or To Green Building - I'm Not.

There Is Stuff I Would Have Liked To Have Done. But There Are No Sour Grapes.
