Marvelous. I love how Kundig trusts his gut. Life is analog.

Skiing in the trees is a lot like surfing. You can’t have a predetermined path or sequence of manoeuvres. Instead you have to react responsively, and creativity, to whatever opportunities that the wave presents to you along the way.

Fantastic interview guys. Well done. Tom Kundig and Jim Olson are my absolute fav architects. Perhaps you should do one with Jim as well? Thanks for sharing.
