A master architect asks, Now what?

Every creative leap begins with uncertainty, not confidence. Even after completing world-famous buildings, doubt and the drive to ask 'then what?' never fade. One early experiment with a chemistry set ended in an explosion, foreshadowing a lifelong willingness to risk mistakes for discovery. True innovation comes from personal expression that pushes past convention, not from trying to please or repeat past successes.
