have been described as two habits of mind. These are often separated by the way that we think about architecture, and subsequently we organize the design process which makes distinctions between what is aesthetic and what is building, what is theory and what is practice. These differences are not real; they reside in our frames of analysis. In the masterworks of architecture these distinctions disappear.
- Don Watson
