Architecture is taught as a calling, but practiced as a service. When architects accept this, clarity replaces friction and relevance returns.

Over a year ago, I arrived at a simple statement: I am no longer willing to keep working in ways that no longer fit. Not a plan. Not a goal. A line drawn through experience.

Every project tests more than design; it tests attention. When skill turns into calculation and clarity fades into confusion, integrity becomes the last detail holding the structure upright.
