When you look at Japanese traditional architecture, you have to look at Japanese culture and its relationship with nature. You can actually live in a harmonious, close contact with nature - this very unique to Japan. Tadao Ando Architecture
Jobs offshoring began with manufacturing, but the rise of the high-speed Internet made it possible to move offshore tradable professional skills, such as software engineering, information technology, various forms of engineering, architecture, accounting, and even the medical reading of MRIs and CT-Scans.

If I want to make people moved or cry in a film, I figure out what the room looks like, what the people are wearing, what time of day it is, what the light is, how to photograph it, where to put the camera.

Architects have created this fake separation between creation and execution. You can see it in architecture schools, where the students look down on going to contracts classes. Joshua Prince-Ramus Architecture
Rome has not seen a modern building in more than half a century. It is a city frozen in time. Richard Meier Architecture
