Many say that architecture is the art of building.
The art is something that is both gift and discipline.
Building is made from a beginning to a completion.
All the materials needed will eventually arrive.
What these actually are, requires specifying.
To those who love making lists, it is a divine moment.
The fun is in the choosing!
All the technology is there waiting to be harnessed
Beams can be bent, Columns can slant but
For our purposes we are interested 'only' in necessity.
AutoCad awaits trembling inside the hard disk
Just waiting to be turned on and started up.
It is indeed an excellent tool of graphic geometry.
None of this answers the question, how do we build?
It is 'the' big question for critics and thinkers.
When we have an answer, that would be a good moment.
For what?
To go and start talking,
To whom?
To our great gentle guiding patron who needs us.
