One learns as long as one lives.
No one told us how important psychology is in the work of an architect.
Especially when designing homes, a very intimate architectural program, being an architect-psychologist is very important. Knowing how to listen to everyone, asking questions at the right time to understand what the needs and desires are, these are essential things if you want to create architecture for people.
The House That Never Was is an example of a concept that fully met the needs of those who were going to live in it. However, the absence from certain discussions of one of the actors involved and the delay in discussing design caused this much appreciated and accepted concept to be abandoned.
The concept was rebuilt from scratch only after the direction for interior architecture was very clear.
Moral: You cannot dress design with unsuitable architecture.
