251 - 253 Elizabeth street. Conceptual design for a new building in Verdigris glazed ceramic office replacing a rather dilapidated existing structure. The building is part of a larger building in a slightly different ceramic and detail on Castlereagh Street.

Elon Musk through cutting off the internet connection to Ukraine has caused death to Ukrainian's. The man is a psychopathic murderer. End your subscription to Starlink.

Bluesky would be incredibly popular if interactions and exposure were the same as threads. It’s not and that’s why many people find it fairly boring.

136 Liverpool street on the corner of Castlereagh street. Designed to incorporate a Colonnade along Liverpool street instead of an oppressive awning for weather protection. It leads to a new station entrance located on Elizabeth street.

A misty morning. 227 Elizabeth street. The upper galleries and pinnacle of the building over look Hyde Park Sydney. A multi level conceptual vision of a possible future.

Listening to Vangelis blade runner ( one of the most amazing soundtracks ever made ) I’ve just realised that Rachel’s song was heavily used on future sound of Londons album.

The building is getting used again which is a good thing but not restoring it properly as it should be to me is an indication of a city who neglect their heritage. Much like the Mac in Glasgow, the same city. I loathe the living ruin title...it's embarrassing. www.bdonline.co.uk/news/glasgow...

When you compare the new concept Citroen 2cv to the old classic there are a few similarities but I do think they have missed some of the quintessential elements that make it feel like the original car.

The length of the car feel's squashed in the concept, The height of the car has lowered, the covered rear wheel arch is missing, the bonnet design is not as interesting.

The overall profile is more generic on the concept which is a bit disappointing and not very quirky, the concept is missing the quarter light window and the loss of the flat side panels. I hope they try and make it more 2cv when it goes into production.

Take away the supernatural ability of Carrie. It hits home when you were bullied at high school and had to put on a happy face or at least pretend nothing is happening. Still a scar after such happy memories at primary school ( uk) where everyone was so much nicer and it felt right.

People are still protesting in Sydney Every weekend ( and rightly so ) because of Israel committing their evil genocide of Gaza and the endless attacks on Palestinians and now Lebanon.

227 Elizabeth Street. Currently a rather ugly office building next to Hyde Park. My vision would be more akin to a cultural building, serving as perhaps an annex to the Sydney Museum with 6 varying floor plates and gallery's complimenting the Anzac memorial and Sydney Museum nearby.

I was told today by a landscape architect that a hedge is far too European and that instead it should be something natural looking because clearly in a city hedges are banned morally and too colonial which he really wanted to say.

I think everyone should be concerned of what type of plague has been unleashed in Russia. Early reports it was from a lab worker in Siberia and they have no idea what plaque it is.

I haven't been to the amazing Horniman Museum for many many years. The main gallery has been refurbished which is a bit of a worry. It's eclectic and odd and when I hear 'up to date' I hope that does not mean the removal the most interesting and slightly macabre exhibits in the gallery.
