The 'Wow' Factor
Fairfax Media asked us for comments on the rise of Media Rooms and what the future trends in housing are likely to be. Walk through any housing display village and it's obvious that a media room is the 'must have' in every modern dwelling. But is this just another fad? Architect Craig Taylor said new trends were already emerging in masterplanned estates. "In the 1970’s, the ‘wow’ factor in houses was created by the introduction of wet bars and saunas." he said. "In the 80’s a

Masterplanned Communities - Part 2
Very pleased to have been asked by Fairfax newspapers to comment on the growth of masterplanned communities. If you have decided that you going to build within a new planned estate you then need to be careful in selecting which block to purchase and whether you wish to use a home builder or build yourself. You need to consider how you live today and then try and envision how you would like to be living in the future; do you need a large outdoor space, are your parents likely

Masterplanned Communities - Part 1
Very pleased to have been asked by Fairfax newspapers to comment on the growth of masterplanned communities. Building a new house will be one of the largest purchases you will ever make and it deserves to be well considered and well researched. The choices of what to build and where to build can seem endless. For many purchasers, the option of buying into a master planned estate relieves them of a lot of the worries about buying into an unknown environment. Estates can promis

Paper City
I like clever people. The streets are paved with paper. This delicate animation follows the charming rise and fold of a fragile metropolis. Captured by an unseen helicopter, the narrative unfolds through winding roads, erupting forests and emerging mountains. Paper City grows in one fluid take, with skyscrapers rising from the page – only to crumble, wrinkle and gently crease back into the ground. #design #video

Design #2
A scooping concrete roof cantilevers over the rear entrance to a house by the Ganges River in northern India. Mumbai architects Rajiv Saini + Associates designed the single-storey residence, which burrows into the sloping riverside terrain. A spa is located where the building tunnels into the hill and a tree-lined courtyard is concealed between the house and landscape. Rough masonry walls define the main entrance, while both angular and curved concrete walls separate individu

Design #1
The “Casa della Musica” in Cervignano del Friuli is the result of a project for reusing, renovating and redeveloping a brick building, which had been abandoned for some time. It was designed and executed by GEZA (architects Stefano Gri and Piero Zucchi). Commissioned by the town council, the new home for culture and musical representations, the “Casa della Musica” has adopted a simple – capable of respecting the memory of the original structure – and yet contemporary language

Tony Plant's Amazing Work
Till the Luck Runs Dry is a celebration of Life and Cornish Landscape.
A moment of personal realisation following the loss of a close friend by singer/song writer Ruarri Joseph led to this beautifully shot, unexpected combination of ephemeral art and music.
‘Till The Luck Runs Dry’ is a Newquay based collaboration between musician Ruarri Joseph, Cinematographer Tim Boydell and artist Tony Plant WEBSITE : tonyplant.co.uk

The ACME Corporation
Artist and designer Rob Loukotka has drawn every product the ACME Corporation ever sold to Wile E. Coyote. In the field of (fictional) DIY mayhem, the leading brand is clearly the company where Wile E. Coyote shops for gear to catch the Road Runner. What the ACME product line lacks in reliability, it makes up for in breadth. ACME will sell you just about anything, from jet-propelled tennis shoes to cheese. Over 43 episodes, Wile E. Coyote ordered and received 126 different it
