Looking Out
Shoin Building at the Japanese Garden
Van Nuys, CA
Do these floor to ceiling open panels qualify for #FensterFeitag I wonder? I will assume so. A beautiful garden to visit if you're in the Valley (though many areas are now undergoing restoration work.)
An old photo from last year. This is 300 S. Wacker Drive in the Loop. It was a pretty nondescript building up until about 2014 when they decided to put a striking mural map of the Chicago River.
I'm looking for folks who have some expertise in #construction. I'm writing a series on #building in the time of #ClimateChange and looking at ways buildings can be safer as the weather gets weirder, and products or approaches that lower the overall carbon footprint of buildings who would be interested in an interview. It would be 15-20 minutes via phone or Zoom, one day this week. Can anyone here help?
Vardáris is one of my favourite parts of Thessaloníki. Although way past its prime, the neighborhood feels nostalgic and alive with memories of when it was lively and chaotic.

Mural in Andersonville, Chicago, Illinois, USA. Andersonville is a cozy neighbourhood on Chicago's North Side. It is traditionally Chicago's Swedish neighbourhood though it is now a slightly more older hipster one now.
I saw this view out the window of the bus this morning so I pulled the cord and got off at the next stop to run back and take this picture of Cornell's Vet School walking back to work I realized the light was special because the building was backlit with the sun behind a small cloud
HELP! Outdoor electric, internet, & water... to a cabin 20 metres from house.
For the log cabin in my friend's garden, she needs to do cabling (internet, electric, water).
We just aren't sure what cables to get, or considerations like how deep the trench needs to be, & if the cables are going to need a sturdy tube to run through, etc.
Can anyone give us advice on any or all of this? :ablobthinkingeyes:
I just love the mish mash of #materials and #building styles that the multi-period #historic towns of provincial #England serve up. There’s joy to be found in the chaos everywhere you look! I’m all for freedom of expression and variety. Although I do draw the line at the crapola allowed by #urban planners in the 50s, 60s, and 70s. #Vernacular#Architecture#Stone#Brick#Timber
