During the Summer Vacation I came across a small book of Steven Holl's watercolours. I'd never heard of this architect and was struck by the way his paintings clearly represented form and mass and their articulation of light and colour. When I saw the Stretto House appear at the lecture as an exemplar, I immediately knew that this was the house I wanted to research. The explorations of Holl and the Stretto House remind me that architecture is a complex medium that can expresses itself best when realised with an honesty of intent, a search for clarity, and a found simplicity.
