We had access just about everywhere and getting to walk above the nave and get an up close look at the construction techniques of a building this old was really great. Since you are not answering my last comment I think you are doing this blog not to hear also a critical voice but just to praise your posts. Incidentally, cool blog.

I am currently sitting in my preferred “blog-writing” spot on the couch, it’s Sunday afternoon and rather than finish the post I’ve started, I’m more in the mood to work on my vacation plans. Why not do both … a blog post on my vacation? Would love to be tagging along for the ride.

All I could think of as we all stood around, first waiting for the police to arrive and then for them to walk the house to make sure it was clear – was how much of my stuff had been taken and how much vandalism damage I was going to discover once I got in the house. It’s almost impossible. Happy Thanksgiving! Have a safe holiday.

The blog is one of the most effective tools a small firm architect can use to foster community. The goal when writing a blog is to gain an audience. Submission to search engines, posting consistent entries and back-linking from every free directory I could find, the blog quickly rose to the top of Yahoo and Google.

I recall one jury in particular from my sophomore year watching one of my classmates walk up to her drawings that were pinned on the wall and prepare to present her work. In one memorable moment the professor walks up the desk of a guy in studio and asks “Can I buy your model for $5″ “Sure!” Love your blog.

In my current office, every mid-afternoon a group of folks get together and walk across the way to a Starbucks to get their afternoon fix … I plan on getting one of these for the office soon so maybe we can get a bit more work done. I know the price tag is steep – I almost left it off the list for that reason.

I really enjoy reading your blog and you do great design work. If I read the renderings correctly you have to walk down to the second garage or the front driveway and then turn back to get to the yard. There is a line I am walking with the client between sharing this process and divulging information he does not want shared.
