A Murmur Of Starlings



A murmur of starlings.

When they fly in sequence.

One of nature's beauties.


I think to love you have to overlook, everything. 

You have to forget, about most things, and forgive.


The Sweetest Little Song

You go your way,

I'll go your way too.

Creating Positive Spaces - Designing For Community

Image
Previously buildings were designed primarily to be functional and to serve the purpose of the business needs within; limited considerations were given to the overall aesthetics and how they may affect the workers and residents. Amenities within public buildings for example would be toilet facilities and possibly limited seating areas for example. However, as design technologies have evolved and awareness of the correlation between human well being and the environment that we frequent, now architectural design is far more sympathetic to our basic human needs.  There is a point where architects can over design and overly control our spaces for example pre-setting ambient temperatures or lighting using a generic algorithm to conclude what is needed. Although on the whole many designs now are incredibly successful it is also worth not loosing sight of the ability of us as individuals to make our own decisions depending upon our circumstances at any one given time.

Landscape Competition - Design Media Publishing

The collection of Landscape Design Proposals demonstrate the vast wealth of talent in the field of landscape architecture. I feel totally inspired and at the same time humbled by the wealth of fabulous entries to the competition.

I am immediately drawn to the Italian 'Walking on the Ribbon' design and would love to know how the designer came up with this concept. I feel that using the autonomy of the ribbon as the main generator of unity within the space is quite a brilliant outcome. The ribbon like a river has the strength of youth in the main larger square and yet creeps and meanders as an older river would do between the buildings and walkways. I also feel the river of ribbon is the thread and the visual grounding that makes the whole area feel safe and energising.  The designer has cleverly introduced new forms; the furniture, the light nee...

Manifesto For Life

Image
  I want to keep moving intuitively and freely without feeling self-conscious.  I want to live a long and healthy life, enriched by love and lots of children.  I want to be successful in my endeavours, valued for my kindness, intellect, work ethic and bravery.  I never want to be valued for my looks they are completely transient.  I want to love and embrace every chapter of my life and grow older without regret or dread.  I never want to fear death.  I want to touch, explore, and follow my instincts.  I want to ask so many questions and remember the answers.  I look forward to changing and evolving. I want to do so with grace.  Always be kind. Kindness is love and generosity, thoughtfulness, and sensitivity.  I am not inferior to anyone. Equally I am not superior to anyone. I have no desire to be either.  I want to always appreciate how blessed I am to be loved.  I want to always be brave and step outside my comfort zone....
