In this book, the renowned architect Stanley Saitowitz, the Principal at Stanley Saitowitz | Natoma Architects Inc., presents a collection of lectures and writing expressing thoughts and ideas that he has developed over fifty years of teaching and practice. Several of the pieces originate with ideas he has shared with students to incite wonder and uncover the inherent awe of certain places and buildings, while others examine evolving interests in his work and the different paths he has taken on his architectural journey, or were written to explore the underlying meaning of ceremonies and gatherings.

He has designed houses, housing, master plans, offices, museums, libraries, wineries, synagogues, churches, commercial and residential interiors, memorials, urban landscapes and promenades.
