About

There was this evening light, from a still mild September, below 2000k, more heat than light. There were pure skies with almost no cloudiness, where nothing truly seemed to separate us from the interstellar void, and sometimes chiseled clouds resting on invisible seas of cool air.
Rarely, the snow, blending on the horizon into the whiteness of altostratus, or it would literally reverse the landscape, and light seemed to emanate from the ground. There was the mist, always, low and gradual in the evening, slowly ascending the damp meadow, and of course, the morning fog, dazzling and thick, inhabitable.
There were smells: those of the river, the humus, the rain. And sounds, those of nature, carried by the wind, but especially the way the sounds we made changed according to the environment, muffled or reverberated, in short waves or deep vibrations.
These memories of Quercy where I grew up, mostly atmospheric, are the ones that likely shaped my perception of the environment. As for the rest, it's the simplicity of a predominantly rural environment, the elementary, basic solutions that surrounded us, that influenced my perspective. Later, I had to learn to align this empirical frame of reference with what is called architecture.
