Modernity’s obsession with speed, transparency and illumination has eroded our relationship with the eternal, or everlasting. This erosion of thought and spirit has been reflected in much of the architecture in today’s current discourse, nearly seamless relationships between interior and exterior, an evenly lit interior, and structural expression with exterior articulation as a glass box or translucent screen. This is our inheritance, this is the architecture of the thin, the fast, and the explicit. This is the architecture of the shallow.

As the shallows drain themselves, we call out in thirst. Pleading for refreshment, we turn to 3 commandments carved in stone.
