To Work Our Way Towards A Shared

I Mean, Making Simulations Of What You're Going To Build Is Tremendously Useful If You Can Get Feedback From Them That Will Tell You Where You've Gone Wrong And What You Can Do About It.

It Is Not Possible To Make Great Buildings, Or Great Towns, Beautiful Places, Places Where You Feel Yourself, Places Where You Feel Alive, Except By Following This Way. And, As You Will See, This Way Will Lead Anyone Who Looks For It To Buildings Which Are Themselves As Ancient In Their Form, As The Trees And Hills, And As Our Faces Are.

One Begins To Think With That New Building Block, Rather Than With Littler Pieces. And Finally, The Things Which Seem Like Elements Dissolve, And Leave A Fabric Of Relationships Behind, Which Is The Stuff That Actually Repeats Itself, And Gives The Structure To A Building Or A Town.

Yet Still, There Are Those Special Secret Moments In Our Lives, When We Smile Unexpectedly-when All Our Forces Are Resolved. A Woman Can Often See These Moments In Us, Better Than A Man, Better Than We Ourselves, Even. When We Know These Moments, When We Smile, When We Are Not On Guard At All-these Are The Moments When Our Most Important Forces Show Themselves; Whatever It Is You Are Doing At Such A Moment, Hold On To It, Repeat It-for That Certain Smile Is The Best Knowledge That We Ever Have Of What Our Hidden Forces Are, And Where They Lie, And How They Can Be Loosed.

It Is Possible To Make Buildings By Stringing Together Patterns, In A Rather Loose Way. A Building Made Like This, Is An Assembly Of Patterns. It Is Not Dense. It Is Not Profound. But It Is Also Possible To Put Patterns Together In Such A Way That Many Patterns Overlap In The Same Physical Space: The Building Is Very Dense; It Has Many Meanings Captured In A Small Space; And Through This Density, It Becomes Profound.
