Follow me through my life as a hermit in architecture school.
Hopefully I can provide fascinating insight in to the life of an insignificant student on his way through it all.

Haha, Westminster, I have a couple of posts on my blog going way back to my first and second years there .. good times.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment! I'm looking forward to reading more posts and hearing about your experience in architecture. As to the topic of new sustainable cities, I wonder about the payoff of building a completely new city versus retrofitting old ones and planning better for future growth. From a energy perspective it makes more sense to build anew, but that doesn't necessarily factor in the cost of making all that concrete or of the experience of living in a city. These rational Roman towns have the feeling of the Island. I can also send the futility of defining a rigid perimeter to a development. Ivan already see the shanty towns full of Pakistani and Bangladeshi migrant workers crowding the outskirts of this plan and the one in Ras Al Khaima by OMA.
