James & Stasia



















It must have been fate that day in the Washington Alexandria Architectural Center when Anastasia and Leafy chose those two empty desks just beyond the newly refurbished front door to James and Patricks studio.

"How the hell are we supposed to focus on our thesis now?"

Everyday since that may not have been the easiest but any day shared together was far better than a day apart and we wouldn't have it any other way.

Registry


















As NYC archi's we don't have much time to use stuff or space to keep/store it. Sadly we dont need a bunch of cookware or china and Stasia wouldn't allow me to put Madden 11 on the registry.

Any gifts would gladly be accepted godfather/goodfellas style but if you don't roll like that we have added some items here...


Check back soon, Updates to come....
