Plans and Seeds
Circa 2008
An architect's work is similar to the work of a gardener.
Few are the visitors to a garden or purveyors of produce who clamor to see seeds. We pay money for the things seeds produce.
The tangible fruit would be an impossibility without the intangible interaction between seed, soil, sun and saturation.
Again the unseen is more important than the seen.
An architect plans the work of builders, as seeds plan the work of a garden. To achieve architectural design, there are rules of engagement and maximizing seeds' potential includes rules of engagement.

"A farmer planted seeds in a field and then he went on with his other activities. As the days went by, the seeds sprouted and grew without the farmer's help, because the earth produces crops on its own...First a leaf blade pushes through, then the head of wheat are formed and finally the grain ripens. And as soon as the grain is ready, the farmer comes and harvests it with a sickle." ~ Mark 4:26-29
