Excerpt from Without Benefit of Architect
I don't play golf but if I did - had just made a beautiful drive down the fairway only to have some one say, "But he had his handkerchief in his left pocket," I know how I'd feel.
I can't bake but if I could - had just perfected a luscious chocolate layer cake and some one criticized it on account of the color of the oven, I know what I should want done with him.
Well, I do build houses and I feel exactly that way when a layman comes along and says, "Has it brass pipe?" - "Is it air-conditioned?" - "Is it insulated?"
It is then that I sympathize with the builder who buys one bag of mineral wool, puts a little here and there so that he can actually demonstrate that his building is insulated by exhibiting a bit.
During the next few years, hundreds of thousands of Americans are going to buy or build homes without the aid or counsel of an architect - "without benefit of architect." Armed with a few minor facts gleaned from not over-honest nor disinterested advertisements, they are going to appraise their intended purchases or write a specification and contract.
