"If L.A. is one of the world's leading cities in architecture, then it is because it is a sympathetic ecology for architectural design, and it behooves the world's architects to find out why."

Reyner Banham:   LOS ANGELES - THE ARCHITECTURE OF FOUR ECOLOGIES

"... Indeed, nearly every residential design with architectural distinction here has been both experimental - in the sense of using new materials, or combining influences in a fresh way, to say something authentic about L.A. - and pragmatic."

Christopher Hawthorne:   LA TIMES

"Trying to make sense of the world without acknowledging architecture's psychological impact on it is to miss a fundamental aspect of its nature."
