A start has turned into a fervor of work and anxiety about Architecture, the diploma is a challenge greater than the degree. Yesterday  a tutor from the last year of my degree asked if I had any images of my portfolio that I showed to get me onto the degree course, the truth was I got onto the course because I was older than 21, and not because of my first ever attempt at an Architectural model. I love that model, it reminds me of my naive ambition, I keep it on my desk, still proud of the little wire wool tree. The model is well proportioned and would make a good size house if measured at 1:100. I purposefully made it small, so it was easier to carry to London on the train.

diploma has begun, and under the eyes of the renowned Neil Spiller and Phil Watson, I tentatively began, not appeased with a sprayed white model and some drawings which skirted around my given site, I at pain produced this site plan, I have forced my self to think at some depth about my own agenda for the site - I’m thinking aggregates and Herbert Duprats Caddis Fly tubes. at the beginning, the work comes hard.

another sketch from idle hands…rubble becomes a foundation and ground slab for a tent with a pyramid hipped canvas, over time walls go up on either side and the canvas is raised, after more time the walls increase in height, a first floor is added and rafters… rubble - tent - tent house - house

aside from studying and developing my own ideas about visionary architecture, I also work in an architectural practice. In the picture is a sketch which I have been adding to over the last few days when my hands are idle answering the phone or something. It is a detail of a floor junction between ground outside ground inside and the foot of a wall. I show insulation under the ground around the perimeter of the construct, I show the floor based off a simple small concrete ground beam with the infill slab on crushed hardcore, and a deep compacted sand bed. The wall is a simple rendered timber frame.  This idea uses significantly less concrete than a standard house floor build up… just trying to push the ideas of convention a little more each time….
