I am writing my final university peice on the link between furniture and architecture, and was wondering if i could get you thoughts.
Can an architect become a furniture designer? |

It's happened may times. I'm surprised your school hasn't exposed to the work. No arch history there?
Macintosh, Wright, Aalto, Mies, Corbu... even Gehry. |

| that is like comparing a piece of sculpture to architecture. The difference is the owner won't sue the artist for a leaking seam. |

Hey SDR...
WHO CARES?
You've been proven wrong once, are you going to continue to ride that horse?
Tell you what, we'll put it on your tombstone. How's that?
There are better ways to fame. Like intelligent, hard, honest work.
Why not copyright the term and every time we say or write it, we have to send you a nickle. Maybe in 20 years you'll be able to buy a pack of gum. |

Hmm -- I wonder what's bugging him (or her) ?
"You've been proven wrong once, are you going to continue to ride that horse?"
When ? Where ? What did I miss ?
The idea behind ideas is to share them, not to hoard them -- isn't it ?
Hop you're feeling better soon !

Ted Benson is a master. He restored a craft. That has got to take some hard work, and some know how. Thank you, Mr. Benson for the opportunity you have given me. It is priceless and I will not waste it.
