EXCEPTIONAL DESIGN
Buildings have to make sense in a variety of ways: structurally, functionally, mechanically, environmentally…
The disciplines that contribute to success in these areas are critical and often under-appreciated, but it’s in the aesthetic sense that buildings most directly move and inspire us.
