This photo was taken in 1930. The sweet little girl with the big bow in her hair is Magda, my mother with her brother and parents. She would have been 100 today... She left us 3 years ago. RIP, we miss her, but she is always with us. #Birthday

I’m all about hardliner sketches in the early stages—they’re bold, and keep the conversation rolling. Clients respond faster, give clearer feedback, and we cut through the fluff way sooner. BON House 2 of 3.

View from Kitchen towards the Terrace is south facing and the Sliding doors brings the outside in. Off centre vaulted timber ceiling. Last of BON House (3 of 3).
Residential design is our sole focus serving Co. Wexford.

This Bungalow is in its early design stage and keeping us creatively busy at the office! BON House 1 of 3, a low energy Bungalow. Does the two tone white and Gray plaster go with the timber link?

The concentration of wealth in the hands of a few isn't just bad for our economy. It's corrosive to our democracy.

When the wealthy and well-connected control our political system, regular people don't have a voice.

The result? The demagoguery and corruption we're seeing now.

After years of complaining about cancel culture, the current administration has taken it to a new and dangerous level by routinely threatening regulatory action against media companies unless they muzzle or fire reporters and commentators it doesn’t like.
Let’s be clear about what happened to Jimmy Kimmel
Trump’s most brazen attack on free speech yet.

Public Consultation for Review of Exempted Development, open to 26/0825
Under the new proposals, a modular-style home up to 45 square metres could be built at the rear of a house.
I can see a relaxation work but not an exemption.

This was before we moved to Los Angeles and my father working with Richard Neutra.
Still looks well. Proud son here.

Daily Calendar wisdom:
The word 'acre' comes from the old english 'aecer' (ploughed field) - defined as the area a group of oxen could plough in one day.
