history
Personal Statement:
"The practice of Architecture has no short cuts. It is the
total of man's science of building - requiring extreme
patience, endeavor of intellect and total dedication - to
conquer its challenge".
"It is my belief that the creative process of architecture
requires a rational approach based on problem solving; that
the physical form of a building is the result of proper
programming and functional planning; that efficiency is best
achieved in any design solution by functional simplicity;
and that aesthetics is meaningful action, not the
afterthought of application".
"Architecture is therefore the symphony of all of these
elements - ideas, reason and aesthetics coming together in
harmony".
"To these beliefs and the challenge of the total dedication
required, I assign my firm to each client who has entrusted
his project to us. To do less, I feel would be unworthy of
this trust".
