In the early 2000s, Allan Kehrt, a Fellow of the American Institute of Architects, and a founding partner of the architecture firm KSS Architects, began writing down ideas about architecture.

It is a moving meditation on what it means and why it matters to push for design that makes the world a more beautiful, more equitable, and more human place.
