Niall Hobhouse to Patrick Kinmonth
Two (almost rhetorical) questions;
Do you think that we are doing enough to stop the process of design congealing? There are so many mechanisms for minimizing risk built into the conventional process that it is hard to dismantle them all at one go. I’m pretty happy to reinstate the risks provided that what unfolds remains genuinely speculative and open to the end.

Isn’t all the cleverness and wordiness on the site a bit much? These aren’t qualities in themselves that we need after all so much as visual imagination, determination and green fingers. How to make the presentation more gestural and powerful?
