Architecture should stimulate & inspire, inform, entertain, educate, provide comfort and be responsible to clients' needs and budget. It must be functional, designed to endure, be respectful of our environment and the specific site. It must reflect context, history, cultures and communities, connecting the present with the past while incorporating advances in technology. Good design can only be achieved by an experienced and knowledgeable team, committed to the clients' goals. Begin each project by listening to the clients, gaining understanding of their program needs and aspirations, and then investing the time and talents to insure and achieve such.
