"in the matter of" More literally, "by the thing". From the ablative of res ("thing" or "circumstance"). Often used in e-mail replies. It is a common misconception that the "Re:" in correspondence is an abbreviation for regarding. The use of Latin re, in the sense of "about, concerning", is English usage." -wikipedia

Architecture: the thing, and by the thing...it is the physical and the experience generated by the physical. It is a response, a commentary, a product - it can never be an isolated statement of itself, its 'self' is always multiplied and sometimes distorted by initial inputs & external conditions.
