Never talk to a client about architecture. Talk to him about his children. That is simply good politics. He will not understand what you have to say about architecture most of the time. An architect of ability should be able to tell a client what he wants. Most of the time a client never knows what he wants.

I don't want to be interesting. I want to be good.

Architecture begins when you place two bricks carefully together.
