Time to put my money where my mouth is, as they say. Here’s the fourth and concluding part of the ‘architecture re-housed’ trilogy - photos of the completed houses.
Of course, although I’ve been quoted on the Building web site this week about the need to focus on existing housing, that doesn’t mean I’m not delivering [...]

A few weeks ago I read an entry on the always informative downloadsquad.com blog that pointed me to the Google Co-op project. It was a how-to explaining an easy way to construct a list of sites to include in a custom search engine by importing your XML list of sites from your RSS reader. The [...]

Two favourites from the sketches category - one about recording an image, the other about recording the action.

Quick one off the wrist

And a few choices from the photography section, which I realise now speak volumes about my attitude towards good photography - it has nothing to do with the quality of the camera. Sadly, [...]

A few final entries about where we’ve been, before we work out where we’re going. Here’s a summary of some of the entries perhaps worth a revisit from the old URL, loosely gathered into a few different categories.

Architecture Sketches quoting Michael Maltzman:

“I can’t say that I design in one way or another it is a lot more back and forwards… It is like casting a broad net and seeing what comes up… Some drawings, [...]

Architectural Advent day 12:

We might as well continue the theme from day 11 with an alternative proposal that takes the full width of the plot. This project is part of the work I did with two colleagues just after graduating. My only bit of advice should you choose to try this layout is to go [...]

Architectural Advent day 11: (will I ever catch up?)

After several years of housing market boom here in the UK, there are lots of people drawing down on mortgages and extending their home. I’ve been involved in a few over recent years, and in a city who’s housing stock is largely made up of Victorian terraces [...]

I spent most of today encouraging a colleague to loosen up, pick up a pencil and push aside the CAD software for a while. After lunch I finally succeeded. The next challange was to get her to loosen up her drawing technique and enagage with the action of drawing before worrying about the final result. [...]

The e-mail containing the link to this site was so uninformative as to be almost rude, but one-click away from consigning it to the spam bin I paused and decided to take a look. I’m glad I did.
