PERSONAL MISSION STATEMENT
In today's fast paced society, time and speed are of the essence. To the
architect, arduously long projects are the norm. Creation is a patient
search that requires tremendous energy and resources. However, with the
hands of the professional Architect who knows his trade and discipline,
and with good understanding of the modern construction technology as
well as the state of art information and communication systems, it seems
that the Architect will prevail to create high quality Architecture in a timely
fashion.

3. "...All of our activities and meetings during our visit were facilitated by Jae Lee, who served – and continues to serve
– as the critical linkage between our office and our two associated offices in Seoul. Looking back now on the
competition process, it was this initial human contact, the sense of a whole team working together and, most
specifically, the efforts and remarkable effectiveness of Jae Lee – his continuous communication, his presence
during the competition in both Seoul and Boston, his familiarity with our practice by way of his education at Syracuse
and his double domicile in both Korea and the States -- that have all contributed to the success of this venture."
-Fred Koetter, "Some Thoughts on the Competition" –
"...Jae, as an architect, with a foot in both worlds, his native Korea and his adopted home in the United States,
allows us to make decisions and propositions that are in fact, common to both. We do, however, share a common
language, that of architecture. Our common background of education, Jae attended Syracuse University’s School of
Architecture where I later taught and I attended nearby Cornell University’s School of Architecture and later
Harvard’s Graduate School of Design where I was taught by Professor Werner Seligman, who was the long time
Dean of Syracuse’s program, gave us a built-in comfort level."
"...Jae was our lens into the culture. We prepared the basic design documents and renderings in New York and
shipped them to Seoul where the team, under Jae’s direction, assembled the final boards, explanatory booklets, and
models."
"... I was pleased to see the optimistic attitude and technical skills of the team of young architects that Jae had
assembled and their willingness to work to the bitter end to achieve design excellence."
"...To work in a foreign country with a culture vastly different from one’s own and have any expectation of achieving
something memorable, a well versed guide is needed. I think of Jae as a sort of architectural sherpa climbing the
mountain with us and making the difficult look easy. Jae Lee has served me and my American teams admirably and
we look forward to designing the actual buildings that make up the first phase of the Sewoon District 4.“
- John P. Reed A.I.A., "My Korean Odyssey - When it rains we all get wet" -
"Jae, Thanks for this however I think if you are not involved we are not involved. Lets look for something together.
Any hope on the horizon? Best wishes, Tom. PS When are you back in the US?"
