I know that you want to know about dates for new projects, but I would like to point out other things first.
It seems there is a lot of concern about the Library, I have been constantly asked by Rich Khan ,via Darren, I suppose, on the accounting of the millwork. I have explained the process to no understanding, it seems. He comes back with the concept that only one corp of the ensemble has been built, as if this just happens out of the blue. I would like to propose you to let me finish the office cabinetry the way that I think it should be, as far as I have been contracted, (remember that there are major issues that implement the project that have not been addressed), and then you decide what do you want to do with the Library, if you want to continue and you feel trustful or you want to cancel it, and or I am still enthusiastic about the project to continue. At that point I can do a full accounting of your monies paid, and rest assured that I will defend your interests as if they were mine. Remember that I have a reputation and I have no intention in tarnish it.
I have to be tactful and rather diplomatic at this point asking those queries to the vendor (like how much he pays his draftsmen, or what is the cost of the timber) without risking the possibility that he decides to just stop everything.
Regarding the images I sent for the Library building, there are for giving the idea of style of building, if I am so wrong and the buildings have the wrong proportions, I am really lost, these are worldwide recognized as beautiful examples of classical buildings.
On the main house, the mention (more than once) that my office is not a "registered architects office" I have never stated so, I employ architects from the U.S.A, Brazil, Italy, in France they are from Monument Historiques, etc, and our office WILL NEVER REGISTER ANY ARCHITECT IN ANY STATE, I do not need that, we provide the design and for stamping the drawings and getting the permits should be dwelt with the locals. Did you ever had any questions about this?
The capacity of our design is so proven by our reputation, you can interrogate a good bunch of the Forbes list who consider that Cherlieu, in Canada is a masterpiece. I have been contracted by them again for a fourth project.,
On the continuation of the Main House new program, I have to remind you that we have not received fees since September, almost 7 months, and I suppose Jeffrey, that as a genial business man you are, you understand that we cannot continue having part of my office dedicated to you if this is already harming the finances of the Studio.
