I really like 2 things here: one, I like your Paul Strand quote in the header, and two, I think your this image is a tremendous example of formalism...the contrast of textures, the pattern, the compositional elements (use of the diagonal). All that said, I think the title detracts from the image's elegance. It is certainly a bit humorous, especially if taken in the context of being a stereotypical big-business lingo sort of phrase tacked onto a machined outdoor surace; however, I think the image stands on its own. Maybe I am misreading the intent of the title.
