The location was in the last remaining intact interior of a small completely masonry (interior and exterior) strip center designed and built in the late forties. New additions are of wood and steel to contrast the existing raw masonry. Everything new is installed so [...]

Creative Process Sneak a Peak
I was opening files and this Skype chat between MJ and I came up. We were in the same city, yes, but in different houses, late at night (noooo we didn’t have a fight… it’s a loooong story… to be told another time) We had a deadline on an article we had been asked to write [...]

Energy, Energy, Energy
If you are not going to be at home, turn the A/C off, or put it at a higher setting. Since we live in a very shaded house that is also probably sitting on rock, we didn’t have to turn the A/C on until two or three weeks ago… So, it’s a little bit of [...]

The Solution to the Ordinance
Madness has taken over our City Council, it must be the late hours they keep… they are about to pass, in a hurry, and without any further public hearing, a City of Austin ordinance that will put us under the most restrictive development code in the United States.

A Fantastic Initiative
Here’s an amazing company I’d like to work with at some point.
