# So you're an architect right?
Have you ever thought of designing something so totally nuts that no one could question and see how far into development it would go?
If anyone asks, just say 'Look, I'm an architect. I know what I'm doing. You'd never understand'

I don't need to design anything so wacky that it technically doesn't work.
I currently have full Architects providing me with such plans, usually accompanied by the immortal words..
'Simon... We've hit a small snag here'

The best one in recent weeks has been a £1 million block of flats
that the client spent £25k on Planning permission with another architect, and they designed a roof that defies physics.

Got planning permission though

# Ha. You should have a big rubber stamp that would let you put "DEFIES PHYSICS" on architectural drawings.
