"I do not think I have spent my career working with buildings at all.
I have had the privilege of helping people,

Beyond the Boiler Room is a book about those people, and for them.
It isn't a manual on how buildings work; it's a book about why the work matters. Great design only creates potential — performance is earned by the person who cares enough to understand the building.
Because in the end, buildings don't perform. People do.
