<DIV CLASS="_1mf _1mj"><SPAN><SPAN>The thief walks silently up to the door and sets his bag on the ground. I see his hand caress the white pilotis as he walks past them, I feel his heart beating in the ecstasy of the act. He opens his bag and takes out his pick. Gently, but with strength, he penetrates the keyhole. The house starts to moan, silently to itself, but I can hear it, and he can too. With expert fingers he caresses the pick in the lock until the door comes open, and the first penetration is echoed by a second, as the thief enters the house: the house of architecture.</SPAN></SPAN></DIV>
