    Architecture Puzzler #275

    "A chair is a very difficult object. A skyscraper is almost easier. That is why Chippendale is famous."
    Quote by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe or LeCorbusier?

    And

    "Small rooms or dwellings discipline the mind; large ones weaken it."
    Quote by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe or Leonardo da Vinci?


     

    Question from Last Week:
    Architecture Puzzler #274

    You specified an elastomeric coating with a dry film thickness of 10 mils (0.25 millimeters). The contractor says that it was applied with a wet film thickness of 15 mils (0.38 millimeters) and that, therefore, the application will be okay. Is the contractor correct?
