They'd say he was famous American architect :) Sorry to go a little off topic, but I am an architect and these basic cal-look rules got me into it for real because they are present not only in my hobby, but first in my professional life.

When I first heard about these rules concerning the VW world, I thought it was very connected with architecture. Is there any real link? I mean is it possible, that a person who adopted these rules to VWs was in any way connected with architecture? |
