The Architect Is In


Twice laid off from Seattle architectural firms in the past year when work dried up, John Morefield knew something had to change.

The 27-year-old, with a degree in architecture - but no state license in Washington, was inspired by public radio’s “Ask an Iraqi” show and Lucy’s psychiatric help stand in the comic “Peanuts.” He decided to set up a booth at a local market and offer cheap advice on home remodeling for 5 cents a shot...
And the hope new contacts would turn into design jobs.

  1. Architects may come and
    Architects may go and
    Never change your point of view.
    When I run dry
    I stop awhile and think of you
