An American architect in Tokyo. Not a werewolf.

Do you live near Tokyo? Like stories, pizza and good beer? There are only a few tickets remaining!

Just sing while you work!

This feels personal now.

Kaiya is moving from 2D art to fashion design—with paper! I support this transition!

But, how do you really feel?

It would be hilarious if Americans crashed Amazon servers asking how much of an imported product’s price is for the Trump Tariff Tax….

Our nearly 5-yr old princess Kaiya is beginning to explore light and color (not to mention render trees like an architect)😁

I have come to love the brilliance of Japanese residential bathroom layouts. I would never design a western (all in one room) fixture arrangement again. Here’s my latest layout design.

Ever lose something in your own home and look for it off and on for YEARS?

I lost these postcards sketched in the 1950’s by my mentor, Marvin R. Doberman, who taught at the University of illinois…I thought I lost them in Wisconsin 20 years ago and today I found them in my tiny Tokyo apartment!

Today I’m thinking this…“Do what you love, with passion, with the little time you have left.”

Kaiya’s brief study in structural integrity—moving from slender, less stable structures.

Kaiya is influenced by every culture she is exposed to…

The architect studies, thinks, then celebrates her design solution!

Just in time for Christmas, my copy of 'SketchUp 2024 for Interior Designers' by Daniel Stine, AIA,and Maria Delgado, PhD just arrived.

It’s rewarding to see some of my designs featured because I have been a SketchUp user since it was first released nearly 25 years ago.
