how the artist emerges

I am an architect; I make art. Let’s not kid ourselves, many architects do; it’s not just me. Don’t ask where this came from, just roll with it.

advice to clients

Are you looking to hire an architect? Are you looking to buy a building? Have you already hired an architect? Where are you on this journey and what advice as an architect can I share? It’s simple.

good client, good architecture

Behind every good architect is a good client; good clients are necessary to good architecture.

small projects :: time management

I enjoy being a small practitioner. I’ve only worked in small offices. I live in a small town.

Be involved. Give back.

It’s just what we do as architects.

expectations and disappointments

I’ve nothing new to share or teach about the profession today.

a good name

This past weekend I had someone at church introduce themself to me. We knew of each other, but we had never met formally. I thought that was very nice.
