We look forward to seeing this project break ground in the near future!

I discovered today that someone improperly affixed my stamp to plans not prepared by me. I have been involved in cases concerning these type of situations as part of my professional responsibility working with the architects board. However it had never happened to me.

We need to do a better job at educating the public on hiring professionals. The plans this online company provided are absolute garbage and could never be permitted. The fact that they used my stamp with a forged signature is a fraudulent crime I will be reporting them to the state board. Unfortunately it does not help the client with getting his project approved. They have no recourse to recover fees paid.

HAI is committed to helping this client. They are the victim of dishonest individuals.

Those that know me, know my passion for Legos. I have numerous builds which are part of the Architecture Series. I am planning on doing a website post on my history with this obsession of mine and how I use it to promote the profession at an elementary school level.

My latest build was, I believe, the most intricate challenge. It took many nights to build and totally worth the effort.

I give you Notre-Dame de Paris
