Within the last few months, the number of emails I have received from people asking whether or not they should get out of architecture has been staggering. Equally surprising are the emails I receive that ask for direction on whether or not they should go into the field of architecture. The answer to both questions is easy -
It’s early Saturday morning, and by early I mean 5:45 am, and I am sitting in the kitchen eating a bowl of cereal because I am trying to be a nice guy. But why am I up now and why should anyone care?
As I write this post, I am laying in my bed, running a 102 degree fever. I haven’t received official word back from the doctor’s office but the possibilities aren’t looking good for me. It got me wondering, what did I do to Karma and why did Karma decide to pound me? Because I am [...]
I get to work one some really nice projects so I’ve been exposed to some tubs that look and perform great. I thought I would put some of my favorites on display here. The prices run the range so these wouldn’t all be appropriate for the same project or budget but since this is my fantasy list, I’ve included whatever I wanted to – neener neener.

I have been working on selecting plumbing vessels and faucet sets on one of our projects here at the office and seeing all the really great stuff that is out there just makes me salivate for the time when I can address the needs of my own bathroom. I don’t anticipate any work beginning in the near [...]
I have been toying with the idea of creating a post that just sits there for a while and whenever I find something that stops me down and gets me to say ‘cool’, I’d stick it in that post. So this is the first one, chock-o-block full of stuff I think is kinda worth checking [...]
Everyone needs to leave their bubble every now and again – go one town over or fly across the world to famous cities full of cigarette smokers super models and un-affordable fantastic architecture.
