Dear Vincent,
Once again, I find myself in need of patience. I know what a burden I must be to you, but who else will listen?
The latest revision has been rejected—not for structural concerns, not for budgetary reasons, but because it lacks a “sense of place.”
What does that mean?
I asked.
They said it’s more of a vibe. A vibe!
I am now studying ancient mysticism to see if I can summon one.
Meanwhile, funds are running low.
I am designing exclusively with napkin sketches and unpaid optimism, improvising as I go, and the results are exciting.
The budget for consultants has evaporated.
I have replaced the sustainability expert with a man who enjoys fresh air.
The public engagement team is now a pigeon that once landed on my model.
God! I have no money left for renderings
Today I presented my vision using hand shadows against the conference room wall.
It was described as “intriguing but lacking a digital-first approach.”
Now I am lonely.
Yours, Theo
