One of Greg Lynn`s favorite quotations is Supreme Court Justice Potter Stewart`s infamously mysterious 1964 definition of hardcore pornography: "I know it when I see it." Greg regularly uses an adapted version of those words - "I`ll see it when I know it" - to introduce lectures on the work of his practice "Greg Lynn Form". In fact, he likes this phrase so much that at one point he wanted it to constitute the title of this book. One of the reasons it isn`t is that, at first glance, these words tell you as little about nature Greg`s work as they do about the definition of hardcore porn. Even in Greg`s adapted formula. And no one wants to buy a book that looks like it`s going to obscure its subject to a greater extent than it illuminates it.
