I'm a designer with over 25 years of construction project experience.
Early in my education I came across Louis Sullivan's maxim through studies of his student Frank Lloyd Wright. Both have influenced my thought and design ever since.
To the idealists pointing to aesthetics, "you haven't properly defined the function" for the remainder I give the words of my professor, Zard Sarty "Sex is essential!"
