Rammed Earth

So… It has been well over a year since my last post.

A combination of being busy with work, spending an average of over 4 hours per researched entry and being frustrated that My Design Fix had turned into something that mainly documented the creative pursuits of others while neglecting my own led to the blog taking a serious back seat for a while.

But I’m back – and hopefully with a vengeance. The photo above is a sneak peak of one of the architectural projects that has been keeping me busy on the construction site for much of the past year.

So stay tuned – I’ll be back with more after this short commercial break…

The Helsinki Cathedral in Helsinki, Finland. Designed by Carl Ludvig Engel.

I love this photo – it was as if the pigeon was reading my mind, placing himself perfectly in the photograph’s composition.

Sorry for the lack of posts lately – Most of my spare time the past month and a half has been taken up with a design competition entry that I have been working on. It’s all finished now so my resolution for February/March: More regular blog entries!

So the frequency of my blog posts has taken a serious beating of late (doing long hours at work doesn’t seem to help blog productivity??)

Well here’s another photo I took with my Diana+ during my Vietnam/Cambodia trip a few months ago to tie you through to the next post – I promise it’ll be in the next few days!

Bayon Head – Diana F+

I’m back! I thought I’d kick things off with a photo I took while exploring the Bayon Temple in the ancient city of Angkor Thom, Cambodia. I took this using my 38mm wide angle lens and black and white medium format film.

I’ve decided to start putting up some of my amateur photography every now and then.

First Year Model

I felt like posting a couple of images of a model I made in first year architecture at uni. I still really like this model – It’s one of the few from my early uni years that didn’t get broken or thrown away.
