About Scott Taylor

http://www.lifeofanarchitect.com

I endeavor to learn how to make anything and everything….from welding to woodcarving. I have recently grown a winter beard, not necessarily in solidarity for “Movember” but in an attempt at the not-too-well-celebrated “Creeptober” “®”. I secretly wish I was a hipster but I am too much of a wuss to get a tattoo or give up my Brooks Brothers slim fit non-iron dress shirts.

So why do architects not sport beards? It’s time to ditch the clean shaven look and enter into a new era of bearded architects.
