singapore world cities summer pavilion

In progress... This is only like 1/50th of the pavilion... super compressed for graphic reasons. Its going to be way more spread out and open with much more sectional manipulation.

Competition I did with Ricardo Solar a few months ago... Didn't win but oh well.

Coachella

wes jones options studio final

So... Final review for Wes Jones options studio at the GSD is now finished... Went pretty well. Jury included Jeffrey Inaba, P. Scott Cohen, Robert Levit, Mariana Ibanez, and a bunch of others I can't remember the names of...
Thanks to Jordan Hines for the help with these renderings... The whole project was designed in less than a week and all production material was done in another week, so without Jordan's help, it wouldn't have been finished.

My sentiments exactly.

Oh Archizoom....

Those crazy italians and their giant phallic towers....

This dude's been like everywhere lately... Really blowing up... I really like his Latent City proposal and his City of Factory proposal, and I find his graphics intriguing, it seems the latest stuff he's been doing is almost a bit overdone (though he does it incredibly well)... Hyper rationalized machines for housing are cool and all, but I don't see the amount of intellectual rigor in them that I see in the urban schemes... They seem "cooler" and have a great deal more technical skills embedded in them but not smarter... Still... This guy is going places and I can see this stuff really starting to influence what I do in the future.

newest job

I just can't say no... I've been put in charge of getting a team together to design the Singapore pavilion for the World Cities Summit. Its a very high profile, very high budget project with a great deal of curatorial intent... The political dynamic of this project is going to be extremely interesting as it represents the government. This is last year's proposal, from an interior design/ graphic design firm from Singapore, Asylum.




Right now the project team is:
Registered Architect: Thomas Schroepfer
Design Leader: Conway Pedron
Design Team: Emmet Truxes, Nate Shobe, Tristie Tajima

newest (oldest) hipster crush

So its been a while since I did one of these... This one is dead but damn if I was alive during this time....
Delia Derbyshire
Def. not the most objective attractive of my plethora of hipster crushes, but she writes scifi electronic music about fifty years before it became popular... Pretty impressive.
