“...the Office's prime approach to architecture... is one of continuous ANTICIPATORY DESIGN.”

“...architects (should) involve themselves continuously in anticipatory design as recommended by Buckminster Fuller”

“C.P. Office sees its particular product (buildings) as the readily recognisable parts of its continuous design process.”

“Architecture must concern itself continually with the socially beneficial distortion of the environment.”

“After she's gone, another brief lull sets in. This one is probably the last. But what good is a lull? It's only a breathing spell in which to get more frightened. Because anticipatory fear is always twice as strong as present fear. Anticipatory fear has both fears in it at once - the anticipatory one and the one that comes simultaneously with the dread happening itself. Present fear only has the one, because by that time anticipation is over.("New York Blues")”
