A parody web site for the faux firm Architects Associates, who "design massive spaces that serves no purpose what-so-ever. ..[and] with lots of glass and exotic materials because it makes them practically impossible to engineer."
Henry Tucker III - Crusty Old Curmudgeon: Refuses to learn AutoCAD because he insists that computers are simply a “passing fad.†He swears he'll be the only architect still working after the apocalypse.
Henry Tucker IV - Spoiled Child Architect: When he finally graduated from college (9.5 years) he was hired on as second-in-command. He has no artistic eye, couldn’t care less about architecture, and still makes more money than everyone else.
Cham Vincent - Post-Neo-Modern-Semi-Retro-Minimalist: Wears nothing but flat-front khakis, was the first to buy an iPod, and has his cubical decorated with balsa-wood shrines that break if you breathe on them. Yes, he drives a Land Rover.
Brad Jennings - Professional Architect: Always smells good and likes to roll up the sleeves of his crispy white shirts. Never seems to actually do any work, but always finds a way to turn every conversation into a discussion about an awesome project he worked on when he was with “such-and-such†firm a couple years ago. Carpet samples, anyone?
Kip Smith - Landscape Architect: Graduated from Vanderbilt with a degree in landscape architecture. Was very disappointed when he found out he had $152,000.00 in school debt and that nobody pays landscape architects more than $12.25 an hour.
Dennis Paul - Tormented Soul: Always looks half-drunk because he stays up until 4:00 am listening to the Doors and building scale models of post-modern structures out of Chinese food take-out boxes and old hangers. He sees a red door and he wants to paint it black, flat black.
Frank Pazinski - In House Engineer: Stubborn, know-it-all who thinks bomb shelters are aesthetically pleasing. If you call him by name he responds by saying, “No, you can't do that.†This is ok, because he says that to just about everything.
Kristi McDermant - Interior Decorator: Young, urban, chic 20-something who eats, sleeps, and breathes Design and Architectural culture. Too bad she has no talent. We only hired her because sometimes she wears tight blouses.
The list of Award winning buildings are numerous and prestigious. Far too numerous and prestigious to actually list, in fact. You just have to take our word for it. There are many, and you'd recognize all of them.
On the "Design Process" page:
"Yes, you are right, we could in fact hang meat in our foyer as the AC is set all the way down. It makes no financial sense but it keeps our meetings short, plus the extras - like Kristi McDemant on those special days. "
