In 1986, while attending architecture school at U.S.C., I took a design studio from Panos Koulermos.. He scared the heck out of me in a nice, "you must strive to do better", way for 16 weeks. I have a deep affection for him and the passion instilled in me by that time we spent together. Sadly, he passed away a few years ago. While attending his memorial, I saw this photo of him in his workspace. I love the simplicity of his table with Mayline parallel rule and one lamp. What kills me is that I have never been able to find a copy of that super cool map of Rome by Piranesi on his wall to hang over my desk.
A very nice memory, no doubt.
