Form follows function" (Louis H. Sullivan, 1896) - I think this is true of all structures, regardless of their size. I have developed a very good understanding of structure, having worked closely with engineers for over 10yrs at the early stages of my career. I am inspired by finding simplistic, elegant and functional solutions to complex construction issues.
