Buildings marked by design excellence are connected to their surroundings and embody the culture of the places they inhabit. They are simply open and accessible. They are built, first and foremost, for the people. Design does not only reside in form, style or materials; it’s reflected in the deeper attributes of appropriateness, proportion, attention to detail and celebration of craft. “Stop thinking of art as an activity totally separate from the human activity; but rather as a part of being human and part of life that is intrinsic, not as a separate event.”- Milton Glaser
