#tbt to sunny summer days and our West Michigan residence project completed in 2009. Among the criteria for the design and siting of this this new home for clients with a 3.5 acre flat wooded lot: Only non-native trees could be removed. In solving the puzzle and working with a local arborist, flora AND fauna helped with siting and organization of interior spaces and home; a deer path offered basis for driveway and obvious location (!) for the attached open ended Garage allowing deer, vehicle passage - and a welcome shaded breezeway to capture summer breezes through the house. A mature white oak specimen tree provided the necessary second anchor to site this home. The entire site has since gone through a further transformation through controlled burning and restoration to all native species of trees and understory plants.

Tunnel Vision - #seattle #tunnelvision #openingday #errands #snowday #notraffic
This great frontier city Seattle suffers a bit when snowing; the hills make mincemeat of the best SUVs, schools close, and winter boots don’t quite know what to grip. This is all ok as it makes our walk to work a quieter, wintry pleasure - a brief and enjoyable real winter interlude from the darker murky days of mist and drizzle.

Call it graffiti on a typical city bench or a deliberate juxtaposition to create this mysterious statement in #oaxacacity. #andthentheycameforme #oaxacamexico #oaxaca #citybenches #urbaninfrastructure #urbanart #keepsmewondering

Hi Laaaar! 👋
Very few things come close to a market lunch with @campbellwilkens of goat served 3 ways (as caldo, with corn stew, and as taco) at a market stall #2 at the Wednesday market at #villadeetla in #Oaxaca #mexico...Gracias a @hesrawe  for the recommendation!
Teotitlan del Valle visit with @campbellwilkens to the 5th generation rug and textile weaving family Montaño and their shop #tierraantigua Great lesson from Diego Montaño Santiago and his passion for colors derived from cactus parasites called #cochinil  #Oaxaca #oaxacafabrics #fabric #textiles #naturallyderivedpigments #zapotecweavers #zapotecrugs #teotitlandelvalle #traditionalweaving
It is difficult not to be completely enamored by the vivid colors, beautiful patterns in #oaxacacity #oaxaca #mexico
