THINGS TO REMEMBER

Sometimes in the craziness of life we forget the simplest things. Let's remember a few of those things today...

Listen to those who have gone before you, then make your own path.

Tell people how you feel instead of assuming they know.

The beauty is often in the process--their is always time to rush later.

 And of coarse...

STEVE BACK & THE HUTT LAGOON

Steve Back :: Hutt Lagoon Aerial Photography

Steve Back's Hi-Res aerial images Austrailia's Hutt Lagoon at first glance appear to be an abstracted form or microscopic investigation into some unknown world. But these heavenly shots are a result of a 3-year project capturing the largest micro-algae formation in the world. An engineer turned photographer, Back has found a truly beautiful and unique way of merging his two passions. And the results are simply unforgettable.

THINGS TO REMEMBER

Often times in design, we are preoccupied with the conventions of what we are trying to create, what we are attempting to improve, or how we are different. Words such as form, light, materiality and texture infiltrate our vocabulary, and although these are all important things that I absolutely love, we sometimes lose sight of the overall goal. Design is ultimately about people. Last night I found myself surrounded by an incredible myriad of talented architects, artists, and designers. They spoke of their projects and processes for design. But what was most impressed upon me, was the ability of architecture and design to bring people together.  Design brings people together who would have likely never met and gives them a common language. The process of design is inherently collaborative, because no good design is ever created without someone else in mind.
