It's been a year....

It's surprising how time passes and you find yourself getting accustomed to your new surroundings. I sold my building in 2013, moved home for a few months, then moved into the rental space next door to my wife's children's play place for a year only to move back to the house and finally renovate my garage into the office studio space. It has certainly been a journey!! Down sizing my office from 6 employees to just me has had it's challenges.

The studio at 498 1//2 Castle Street has been a great shift in not only the way I practice Architecture but how I deal with Family as well.


Coming Home: Building the Home Studio

It's been quite a while and I've gone through quite a bit over the last few years. Gypsy, vagabond, scoundrel, architect. Now I have a place close to home that I can work in and continue my practice. I will share some pics for now and update everyone shortly on all the going's on over the last 5 years of this blog. Wow, cannot believe it's been this long since posting.

 The winter of 2015-16 with my move to the studio housed in our garage. Not too bad until the Spring thaw and all the water!

 The interior of the compact version of  DLA+A. Sort of back to Richard's bedroom at 106 Oak Street in 2003! Funny how life works that way.

My work on the renovations at our home garage to make a "home" for my architectural practice. Not without the humor of the house number and mailbox out front! I also reused my 106 Oak Street shingle over the door for good measure.

I'll be updating everyone on what's been going on. I'm surprised myself with all that has gone on over the last 5 years.
