And, I have no idea how this could be turned into a building without disrupting the immediacy and continuity of the drawing. I've been trying to sketch more and I'm realizing that I'm so geared towards architecture that I have trouble drawing non-architectural subjects. I guess I'm a specialist now. If you want portraits or logos, you'll need to hire someone who does that full time.
But, are architects still the last generalists, as I've heard some people claim? Our profession, despite advances in technology, still provides a specific service for specific situations. An experienced architect who can provide good service has a degree of adaptability, but he or she is much more effective if the majority of work is concentrated in a narrow range of building types. Those designers with a surfeit of hubris would claim otherwise.
