Ernest Hemingway conveyed emotion with an elegantly straightforward system. My methodology is patterned after his. To share a feeling, I recall the sharp details that caused it: buzzing bees fading to autumn's dry red rustle; a murmur of voices from the sidewalk below; stars creeping across a narrow aperture. An honest detail, delivered without embellishment, instills emotion. Form is sculpted and resculpted, distilled, until a minimum of moves create the "particular sequence of motion and fact that make the emotion". Clear lucid simplicity, the ability to share a fundamental emotion with a single act, is the ideal of my architecture. / Master of Architecture
