The most genius observation to emerge from a semester of architectural theory was the equation below (all credit to Edgar Veliz).  To be very specific: “those guys (Le Corbusier and Eisenman) are kind of like the Kanye West of architecture, right?”  The similarity, in case it escapes you, rests on our heroes’ (not unfounded) self-aggrandizing egos topped by their common, innate ability to be infuriatingly articulate.  The shared susceptibility to be photographed in ¾ beauty shot was entirely incidental.
