Architecture Philosophy

For days you’ve climbed the mountain to seek understanding and knowledge from the great Architectural Sage. Finally, you’ve arrived, breathless, you enter the temple. There, resting crossed-legged on the floor in front of the altar is the old Sage himself, wearing a turtleneck and tunic. What wisdom will he impart?

The most important part of the door is the hinge. It’s the part that lets you move.

A home is more than walls, floors, doors, windows, and a roof. Occupancy defines a home.

Architectural Sage

The entrance to your home can be obscured, sure. But is the entrance to your heart?

Architectural Sage

The structural grid supports the roof and floors of this building. But what is your support system?

Architectural Sage

How is your foundation?

Architectural Sage

The solid masonry veneer around your building’s core can not protect your emotional core.

Architectural Sage

Yes, you spend all day working on visualizations. But does anyone truly SEE you?

Architectural Sage

The construction document set for your well-being is never complete.

Architectural Sage

It’s the revisions that slow you down.

Architectural Sage

The most current version of YOU is still in need of more redlines.

Architectural Sage

Your life is the design that you never finish.

Architectural Sage

Then the Architectural Sage offers you tea. You sit crossed-legged and sip your tea suspiciously.
