Ya know what's really wrong with architecture? The art in it is "try-hard." It's so try-hard, even the regular boxes the engineers come up with are better.

Here's the thing about art... there are only basically two messages in any art : the pain of the artist, or the pain of the observer. Both, usually. Even serene scenes still only speak to the pain you feel, oftentimes a pain of losing something that never was.

What passes as architecture is about as artistic as a Japanese dude's hair. Stupid angles going all directions and held in place by an invisible hardened gel, and stupid colors sprayed into the ends. That's modern architecture. Retards.

My hand hurts. I'm going to bed!

My house has been designed and built with your two principles in mind. It has been built on twelve concrete pillars with the main living area more than three metres above the ground level. It has airflow from the West to East or vice versa depending on the season. We do not need air-conditioning. Also, no lawn, just a permaculture garden.

I hope your hand gets better 😉

That's awesome. And from the pictures you share, probably close to the ocean too.

I was just about to hit the delete button on this note. Too disjointed. No one will get how art can be in architecture. What I was originally trying to say was the engineers have it more figured out than the artsy fartsy architects, because the art has to flow from the function, instead of the function fitting into the art. The cut on my hand made me truncate my thinking.

GN for real this time. Hopefully

It came across well enough in the post.

Cats can be dangerous creatures.

Get well soon 🙏
