I took a friend with me to Norman Foster’s architecture firm’s 40th birthday party in the British Museum. We got a Private View of the terracotta army. We queued to shake hands with the man himself, rather like meeting Santa, but for grown-ups. When we got to him we realised we had no idea what to say, so I took his hand and said, “Congratulations. It’s a wonderful achievement.” Norman nodded his head and said a heartfelt thank you, then his face slowly melted into this ‘who the hell is this guy?’ look. I like engineering situations like this TOO MUCH!
Question: what gift do you get the architecture firm that has everything?
Beaker
Cousin,
Santa was an Architect……if you think about it…
Merry Christmas to you and to Ping
Love Andyx
Ps, loving your work, don’t understand it all but I DO LOVE IT!!!

I’m sure if Santa had been an architect chimneys would look a little different today. Sort of wider with a staircase inside and lighting.
