Most architects have their own personal favorite architects.
I happen to be a Carlo Scarpa fan, and have visited his projects in Italy. My first degree is in Environmental Design from the University of Washington's College of Architecture and Urban Planning . That's in Seattle, where I spent some rainy days and nights in the studio . The architecture I most enjoyed when I was staying in Paris were the Art Nouveau apartments and buildings by Hector Guimard . Also, Fondation Le Corbusier is located in Villa la Roche , 16th arrondissement.
