St Francis Of Assisi Chapel

On my way on a rainy day to meet clients to look at property in Wine Country Temecula, I drove through Warner Springs. Saw this as I went by, did a u-turn to go back and check it out. Super cool old structure!

Built in 1830 apparently, this adobe structure has had some major settlement over the nearly 200 years. Check the retrofit buttresses on the backside holding up the severely leaning wall.

People House - 2008

Innovative design I created 13 years ago for simple and versatile living. A solar-powered house who’s interior could evolve as your life evolves. Talk about an “open floorplan”…

Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC) Test Mix Day

Very special project in Carlsbad investigating using UHPC in conjunction with concrete forming products, and in other ways, providing superior strength, economy, and additional architectural freedoms. Special Inspector observing and taking samples for testing in the lab. Several batches made today with enough left over for my little architectural concrete veneer block mold experiment!

Ride By

Passed by a couple of my old past projects on my bike ride this morning. Love the weathered look of good modern asian design, if I do say so myself.

Horizon Blue

Waiting for landscaping to go in before this amazing Del Mar project can be fully photographed.
