Architecture is fundamentally, a service business. An architect is given a program, budget, place, and schedule whose end-product sometime rises to what people call art.

Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness.

Architecture is a representative of who we are. In the end, the character of a civilization is encased in its structures.

Architecture is a small piece of this human equation, but for those of us who practice it, we believe in its potential to make a difference, to enlighten and to enrich the human experience, to penetrate the barriers of misunderstanding and provide a beautiful context for life's drama.
