The entry to the Beatles LOVE Cirque du Soleil show at the Mirage in Vegas. Great show, amazing visions and interpretations of Beatles' songs, and wonderful acts and choreography.
In all my years of architecture school and practice, there seems to be a pervasive myth that my job is pretty and easy. Here, I reveal the painful, ugly truth about why it takes so long to build a building, what it is exactly that we do, and why that's not creamer you smell in my coffee.

Architecture, of all the arts, is the one which acts the most slowly, but the most surely, on the soul.

About Me
- Mile High Pixie
- Denver, CO, United States
- I'm a (finally) licensed architect out here in the wild, wild West who kicks butts and punches lists. I focus on designing hospitals, which--between the program and the clients--is a real challenge. I like what I do for a living, and have the site observation photos to prove it. My job is part designer, part technician, part software guru, part counselor, part therapist, part spiritual guide, and part repo man. So don't toy with me, or I'll refuse to sign your Pay Application.
