When I was a growing up and spending time at my Grandparents home, squeaky floors were warm and inviting just like Grandma’s fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and the candy dish full of Grandpa’s lemon drops. That is just the way it was…the floors at Grandpa and Grandma’s always squeaked. Their home was built in the early 1900’s, and I didn’t think [...]

Normally with street view, you can only see views where a car can physically go, but now they are including the ability to look at the public uploaded pictures on Google Maps.
If, let’s say, you were touring Trafalgar Square in London on Street View, you would just go around in circles. Now, however, you can [...]

Traditional interior design is perhaps the most popular style in America today. It has roots in earlier generations but still manages to embrace the present with style and comfort.
The shapes in this style setting are typically very graceful. Curving lines are very [...]
As an architect and shaper of place and space, I grapple with the dilemma of how and why to integrate nature into the buildings I’m involved with and how to make them meaningful for those who use them. Designing buildings and places involves a conversation of sorts between a building site, the people who use [...]
