' Addressing thirty years of firm history while simultaneously speaking to the next thirty years, David M. Schwarz observes that 'Without a great deal of forethought or planning, we developed a view of ourselves as populist architects, and began to define ourselves as neo-eclectics, as our goal became to make places for people, created out of a fabric that was familiar and easy to understand.
