As a result of all this extra time working – along with working in a small firm, I was given opportunities very early on in my career and I was able to take advantage of them. This meant that I could spend as much time as I wanted working on a design problem as long as I met the overall deadline.

For architects, especially those in small firms, nothing has changed much in the past 40 years. While most businesses have moved forward with modern business practices in management and human resources, the small firm is left behind and is having problems maintaining a strong productive team. It Begins On the First Day.

Since the vast majority of my career has been spent in small firms, I tend to create redlines that are more narrative and collaborative in their nature. I don’t think I necessarily create redlines like most architects, at least not like any of the ones I know. Redlines are typically created to indicate mistakes or missing work.
