Frankenstein

We use the word frankenstein as a verb. Actually we stole the use from Josh Harrold. I think Josh may have stolen it from somebody else as well. But it fits. For us, Frankenstein is a symbol of creativity, of assembling disparate parts in a new way to give it life. He represents the ugly and the beautiful at the same time. He represents love and kindness while being agressive and untamed. He is both simple and complex. So to "frankenstein" a project means to appoach it with all of these things in mind, revealing the process of making honestly and seeing the natural beauty in the architectural solution.

So Frankenstein guards the gallery in our office. Some people notice him right away, while others miss it entirely.
