In July of 1969, astronaut Neil Armstrong stepped off of the Lunar Module named Eagle onto the surface of the moon, and pronounced those most famous words, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." Perhaps not quite as momentous insofar as historical significance, but nonetheless significantly important as another small step in our professional development, is the production of this new blog. As the blog title suggests, our emphasis will be on the art and craft of design in the built environment, with special emphasis on the arts and disciplines of architecture and structure. For those familiar with Monteso Design Studio's tenuous relationship with cyberspace technology, it may come as some surprise to find these posts. Consequently, it should be no surprise that this constitutes one giant leap, if not for mankind, at least for us. So, not unlike the "Eagle", after which the Lunar Module was named, today we spread our wings...and fly.
