It was great to see Millie's post at The Laurel Hedge about a small pavillion designed with a great classical sensitivity. You guys should check it out.
We recieved an email last week, from an architect Chris Macpherson, who had been referred to our blog and who has approached us about working on the design of the buildings at Willowbrook. I would describe my sense of architectural style as new classicism. He seemed to demonstrate a passion for this style of architecture, and he has agreed to come to meet on the site for further discussions about the prospect of working with us.
And finally, for those of you who are not yet familiar with the blog Architect Design, you should definitely check it out.
what -i'm so shocked and pleased to be mentioned! I've had this book on my amazon.com wish list for awhile - I think it's time to breakdown and get it!!!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back David - I missed hearing all the news from WP! Thanks for the mention, yes, I loved that post too. I love that term 'Radical Classicism', it conjures up all sorts of images in my fertile mind!

Hello David
ReplyDeleteLovely to have you back on the "grid". What a fabulous project you are undertaking - it's so interesting hearing your perspective on building plans, dam building, orchard planting, garden planning. This has been our/my major indulgence for the last 10 years and have to say it's been the most wonderful thing I've ever taken on! Leigh
