NOTE: Mr. Scott Cohen’s drawings are fantastic. The one thing I miss about architecture is drawing — up until recently I had a drafting table and a mayline set up for doodling type. These drawings are so logically nuts, to the point where you are guaranteed to get out your leadholder, for old times’ sake.
