Architects already do this, it's called a bubble diagram. They were really made popular at the GSD in the 1940s because of people like Gropius's interest in architectural space as response to pragmatic needs/desires. So, who needs to learn from who now?
from whom!
The Galbraith post is well considered, interesting, and limited in its scope. The ZDNet article is oversimplified and a bit insulting. I'd rather see a link to the original source above.
From whoM?
Just sayin.
