“ Over the last sixteen years I have encouraged and educated architects to be sensitive and skilled stewards of the world we live in. Architects need to skillfully coordinate their building endeavors with a love of nature. A genuine appreciation of nature entails celebrating nature by connecting people to sunlight, shadows, and breezes as well as to views and crafted outdoor spaces. Moreover, the manner in which an architect assembles a building may preserve the wonders of nature while thoughtfully utilizing natural resources: energy, materials, land, waters, and air.”
