MOTIVE

motive_1

A knowledge + understanding of the elements of design opens doors to creative options + opportunities.

Design ideas require clarity + accuracy. I produce outstanding solutions that communicate the essential nature of a given project. 

Communication is not a one-way street; ideas must be shared to be enhanced, and to evolve toward the best design solutions, creatively.

Drawing is about attempting something beyond language and beyond representation, an arrangement of line + mark + space designed to serve a variety of expressive purposes, motive. 

I connect with the world and experience life. Mine is the hand of a practiced artist who has spent thousands upon thousands of hours honing my tool. My pencil is a baton; the goal is to wield it as effortlessly as most people breathe. I strive for humor, humility, work ethic, and confidence.

The practice of defining architectural form involves a multitude of talents; primary among these is the ability to communicate ideas, whether it is a presentation before a client, a public meeting, or a charrette. Design ideas should be clear and accurate, and promote useful instruction.

The drawn line responds to the “changes of rhythm and feelings of surface and space” that are created by the work of architecture. A hand drawing can thus become part of the narrative of a building project, and it can be the starting point for the conversation on a project, or help that discussion to move forward.ped_thru-sm copy
