     "All the world's a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts." William Shakespeare   ACT 1 This play titled “ARCHITECTURE” began in 1978, with my move to Arizona and my entrance “Stage Right” as an entry level “hand draftsman” at ASSOCIATES IN ARCHITECTURE AND DESIGN (aka AAD).  My architecture education in New York occurred well before computers and CAD. I rose at AAD from draftsman to project manager. 1981 marked my promotion to lead AAD’s new California office to serve our west coast clients.   ACT 2 In 1982, a year after moving to California, I was given an equity partner position with the firm and I have never looked back. With my mentor-partners, David Udkow and Bill Weikart, we grew AAD to become one of the nation’s premier Architectural Firms specializing in retail and restaurants streetside, malls and in airports.   ACT 3 Years later when Mike Steveson joined me as partner to operate AAD. Together we sold the firm to a group that would bundle it with FITCH, a design group out of the United Kingdom. In 2002 after two years of being the CEO of FITCH:AAD I left for my first “retirement” after 24 years at AAD.   ACT 4 How did that retirement work out? I was fortunately called out of retirement by a few longtime clients In 2004. Reuniting with my former interior design director at AAD, the talented Jennifer Reynolds, we established IDEATION DESIGN GROUP (aka IDG).   ACT 5 It’s been 20 years since starting IDG, add the 24 years at AAD and after playing all the characters for a combined 44 years - it’s time to finally start “relaxing” (once I look up and understand the definition).   There are many people to thank for making this play have a successful run for over 5,000 projects worldwide. Thank you to my hundreds of clients, to over a thousand employees past and present, GC’s, reps, and friends. A very special thank you to Jennifer, for helping me navigate this successful journey through the years. I take my final bow, leaving everyone in Jennifer’s capable hands.   I have always read these retirement posts with a tinge of jealousy. Well, it’s now my turn.   I will start my “New ACT” at 12:01 AM on January 1, 2025.   My plan is to make the best of “this retirement” for Jacki and the rest of my supporting and loving family.   Thank You ALL. A fond ADIEU…Carl   EXIT STAGE LEFT…
