As a property developer, I learned a long time ago to choose your battles wisely and that, unfortunately, compromise is a given.
I admire anyone that follows the road less travelled.
Life involves other people and it is a compromise.

Building design isn't trendy.
My favourite authors include Trollope and Dickens.
