I've just found the website of my great and old friends, Jim Brown and Jim Gates, owners and architects of the firm called PUBLIC in San Diego. These guys, together with another school mate, Robin Brisebois are heirs to the legacy of Ted Smith and Others, a architectural firm like no other. Ted taught these guys how to build thier own projects and off my buddies went to amass a portfolio of great work. In another life, I would have liked to have apprenticed together with them to Ted. There's a lot more to describe about them and Ted too. Rizzoli should do a book about him for sure.
I'll write more later of course. For now, let this serve as an announcement that they are forthwith, in the Soup of Links!
