Ideas Exist In The Marketplace; They Are

When I Was A Child I Could Do Math And Art, So I Had Left- And Right-brain Capabilities. But I've Seen My Children, Who Are More Right-brained, Struggling. My Son Was Told He Wouldn't Make It To College, But He Dogged It Through And Ended Up Being Accepted By 10 Major Art Schools After The High School Advisor Said, "please Don't Apply. You're Going To Be Disappointed." That Kid's An Artist Now.

For Me, Every Day Is A New Thing. I Approach Each Project With A New Insecurity, Almost Like The First Project I Ever Did. And I Get The Sweats. I Go In And Start Working, I'm Not Sure Where I'm Going. If I Knew Where I Was Going I Wouldn't Do It.

I Am Obsessed With Architecture. It Is True, I Am Restless, Trying To Find Myself As An Architect, And How Best To Contribute In This World Filled With Contradiction, Disparity, And Inequality, Even Passion And Opportunity.

I Refuse To Work Unless I Get Paid, So I Don't Get A Lot Of Work Sometimes.

On Certain Projects, On Big Public Projects, People Definitely Are Interested In Making Them Greener, But On Smaller Projects With Tight Budgets It Can Be Harder.
