Jake Roberts

I was in Beijing a month ago working on the smoke project in collaboration with an architect there, and I was asked very directly whether it was safe to breathe in the smoke.

One of the things I think about as I've evolved as an architect is, 'Where do the poetic impulses come from?'

Matthew James Thomas

Every man is the architect of his own fortune.
