Conclusion? • “…what it is foreseen with regard to the upcoming implementation of the documents, taking into account your experience as an RIT member.” • My answer: LESS IS MORE
Conclusion? • Andrea del Sarto, 1855, by Robert Browning (http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/andrea-del-sarto/): …Who strive - you don't know how the others striveTo paint a little thing like that you smearedCarelessly passing with your robes afloat,-Yet do much less, so much less, Someone says,(I know his name, no matter) - so much less!Well, less is more, Lucrezia… • The phrase is also often associated with Ludwig Mies Van Der Rohe (1886-1969), one of the founders of modern architecture and a proponent of simplicity of style. • But what does the RIT member means with “less is more”? • The floor is open.
