"Mistakes" does not deal with bad architecture. Rather, it explores mistakes that are the product of a disproportion or displacement; mistakes that are somehow generous, open, and brave; mistakes that involve some sort of heroic failure; and mistakes that shed new light on the limits of the very same rules that encourage us to label them as mistakes.
