The Triumph of Tinkerism.

The architecture of products we use
year in/year out tend to evolve from the experiments of individual
craftpeople rather than being handed down by the Intelligent Designer.
"Architecture" can be the art and science of figuring out the 
enduring principles of things that actually work, rather than
building abstractions that can live only in the rarefied air of
pure thought.
