Tony Watkins

I wish to congratulate and thank your writer Tony Watkins, also your paper for publication of “Houses are for the birds” in The Human House. This is one of the most delightful pieces of writing and expressions of humane philosophy that I have had the pleasure of reading.

“If you want true wisdom, knowledge of what is really important in this world, and a refreshing honesty and frankness, sit down with my friend Tony Watkins for an hour or so.

In some senses this book is a catalogue of a man railing against a bureaucratic system that seems to make less and less sense as the years pass.

Tony Watkins has been a singular identity on the architectural scene for almost 40 years – part Pan, part Diogenes, part Francis of Assisi.
