some kind of beautiful

regardless of what state of mind we are in, we have our very own definition of beauty. what might appeal to you does not necessarily appeal to me in the same way. maybe a little, but at a different perspective. maybe that difference applies value to everything we do or say or think. architecture would have been very significantly different to a carpenter from a small village than to an experienced architect from the big city. both have their core principles that works in their own ways. there is no denying that we live&prosper in the most opposite of extremes, but swap it the other way around it could be the end for both parties. just saying.
 
food for thought;
every project is unique: a site and a circumstance, a culture, a climate, a program. all of these forces are unique and you need a concept to hold the manifold pieces together, an idea that makes the project significant in its place and for its purpose. that is always the way i begin projects. // steven holl's answer when questioned about his sources of inspiration.
