Hmmm…I’m searching for inspiration…

Perhaps I’ll find it here…

Will a bulb go off here?

Ta da!  Inspiration found!

What’s New?

Same old, same old here…

Slow Start

It was a very busy weekend, and I am having a bit of a slow start.  I really would like to spend a good part of the day here.

But in reality, it is time to start marching to the beat of my drum.  Happy Monday.

The Sublime

There is so much beauty for us to feast our eyes on.  We are very fortunate, indeed.  Every now and then there is an image that leaves a lasting impression on me; an architectural beauty that I will never tire revisiting.

Ahhhh…and then…the film.  It is exquisite…a must see.  If you decide to watch, and I hope you do, please use your full screen.

I am taking a couple of days away due to my move.

It is with great delight that I introduce my tumblr friend, remash, to you.  My day is not complete without visiting his inspiring site.  Beauty, vision, edge, are words that come to mind when thinking of his work.  When you have time, stop by remash.  Enjoy…

Roughly a year ago a sculpture/ tower/ climbing toy I designed and built was featured by Arch Daily, Contemporist and a number of the other design sites.  I was surprised by the response and curious about who was interested.  While searching, a few sites and names repeatedly popped up.  One site that stood out was cabbagerose, another was tumblr.  Little did I know that the two go hand in hand.  Nor did I know that I’d start my own blog just months later as a result of my curiosity.  I was a stranger in a strange land.  Now a year later, here I am, a guest in the house of ‘rose.  It’s funny how things work out sometimes isn’t it?  Cheers + well met.

Inquiring Minds Want to Know…

So why do architects wear black? In a neat little notebook, bound of course in black, Cordula Rau has collected the answers to this question given by 100 architects and designers, acquiring in the process an impressive collection of signatures.
