The palm house rules

Working inside a living building means the plants get the last word. Here are the rules we agreed.

Where it started

Every project begins the same way: I stand where the audience will stand and write down what they can see. Most of the design is deciding what to take away from that view.

What changed

The frame started as a practical thing, a way to tell a crowd where to look. Now it is the first thing I draw. It gives a place an edge, and an edge makes people curious about the other side.
