An Architect Is Given A

One Of My Unsung Heroes Is Erich Mendelsohn. I Met Him When I Was A Student And He Was A Cranky Old Man And Very Unpleasant. But If You Go To His Einstein Tower In Potsdam, Germany You See An Enormous Intellect At Work With A Language That Was Personal And New. It Has A Sense Of Urban Design And Of Theater And Procession I Hadn't Seen Before.

For Me, Every Day Is A New Thing.

The Back Of Saint Peter's Is One Of The Finest Pieces Of Architecture I've Ever Seen.

China Is Building Cities For A 20 To 40 Percent Increase In Population. India Is Quickly Growing. The Carbon Footprints Of That And Other Development Around The World Are Overwhelming.

There Are A Great Many Things About Architecture That Are Hidden From The Untrained Eye.
