No one expected a first year engineering student to build the perfect bridge.
Who knows, maybe I am simply a talented architect?
I am involved in the architecture of space.
When I say artist I mean the man who is building things - creating molding the earth - whether it be the plains of the west - or the iron ore of Penn. It's all a big game of construction - some with a brush - some with a shovel - some choose a pen.
When I was working in my first job engineering construction, what I liked the most was working with architects and making buildings that had this creative side coming from the architect and that were making them a big success.
Be able to read blueprints, diagrams, floorplans, and other diagrams used in the construction process.
In the big picture, architecture is the art and science of making sure that our cities and buildings fit with the way we want to live our lives.
I'd like to know about some of the things that they teach down there, like building a lake. If I ever wanted to build a lake, I'd like to know how to do it.
The rules of navigation never navigated a ship. The rules of architecture never built a house.
You have to do every detail on every bloody piece of the building. You have to know how the engineering works. You have to know how the fittings go together. You have to master the mechanical, electrical, acoustical - everything.
