"articulate the in-between." -Aldo van Eyck

how do you feel about expressing the "in-between" in your designs? like Eyck, do you feel that its the in-between that we experience and relate to and that place and occasion mean more than space and time?

handmade vs technology

we no longer live in a 'workmanship' society.

what affects does this have on architecture and design? what affects does this have on the way you design?

has our dependency on technology enhanced our designing abilities or has it crippled our designing abilities? if so in what ways.

green design

looking at the advances we as designers have made from 400 b.c. to 2009, should we live 'green' to save the planet 10,000 years from now, or should we make the change because it could help 10 years from now?

because if we keep at the same rate, there most likely will not be a planet to help 10,000 years into the future.
