High end creativity is what I simply bake!  

What architects are trying to achieve usually is to create a focal point in their designs. And this is a way to focus on particular components of the architectural design. It's just making simple things seems more exquisite and much more alive.  
My Architecture Focus is to create weird emblematic emotional spaces of value. In fact, it is a passion and desire to strive for the best, amid the challenges and pressures that make you an architect worth it. 

However, to be a real architect is not about to be only uniquely different but to be much more awaken for enlightenment arts. 
In the enlightened state of art, you still use your thinking mind when needed, but in a much more focused and effective way than before. So what is left when illusion of creativity ends?
