I am American. I went to Europe on scholarship for about a year and traveled a lot. When I got back to America, I was yet again in culture shock. Quantity and loudness is respected in our culture in many instances. There is no time for the mind to be creative when the loudness of the masses and the sensationalizm of the idea smothers the originality and subtlety of the senses.

I will see your loft soon and my friend, an interior designer from Europe, speaks highly of your ideals.
