This Weekend’s Digressions…

  • Andrew Hawkins from Life of an Architect has put out his 2022 reading list and it is looking pretty sweet. If you are looking for some reading suggestions look his over, there is a good variety of topics… lifeofanarchitect.com

  • here is a weird and wacky idea; run a website about low tech solutions and thinking powered by the sun. When the solar power fails the site goes down until it recharges. I log this under, “Just crazy enough to be cool.”… solar.lowtechmagazine.com

  • Why Creative Thinkers Smarter than Logical Ones… granted that is a bit of an antagonistic title (no doubt designed to goad you into clicking), but it turns out to be a pretty good one on being a maker rather than simply a critic … mariabrito.com

  • this is a serenely beautiful interior redesign of a 1970’s condo in Black Butte ,Oregon… hackerarchitects.com

  • the blocking and orientation of space in this suburban house in Osaka is remarkable… plainmagazine.com (more pics here… yukawa-design-lab.com)

  • a sophisticated and rustic summer camp bunk house inspired by children’s drawings… fieldmag.com


Who We’re Loving on Instagram…

  • for those of you into architectural renderings and models… @archiurbs
