Some sketches I recently came across from a few years back for a garage and small flat extension to our property. I have hundreds of these "options". Being and architect you’re always scribbling and sketching. The funny thing is there was no money to fund this endeavour. #sketch #scribbles #architect #options #residential #design #fun #dreaming
Slick new pedestrian and cycle swing bridge
So sad to see an old friend has left us but that their legacy continues in the form of a slick new pedestrian and cycle swing bridge at the V&A Waterfront. I have to say it looks beautiful, well done #SMEC #COA #stefanuttistocks #bridge #steel #wood #water #school #design #architect #architecture #aesthetics #detail #cables #tension

Evoking a wave like rhythm
A nearby school has an outdoor pool, they would like to enclose the pool so the community can use throughout the year. This is a quick sketch of a possible solution incorporating a mono pitch portal frame to give the enclosure presence and evoke a wave like rhythm #architecture #concept #waves #design #school #aesthetics #pool-roof-enclosure #community

Levels, light and landscape
my opinion piece about micro-living posted on @Voices360. JFCA’s mission is to be engaged with the issues facing communities where we operate: I believe that design is not just about aesthetics, it can be part of positive social change. #design #community #newthinking #architect #socialhousing #living #aesthetics
