I spent a good portion of the Sunday and all of today re-designing and rendering my live-work units on the Southwest corner of the Eastlake Zoo site. Although it was a rewarding change and they're looking better than ever, I'm still feeling pretty far behind.
A few tweaks to the boulevard building on my project have resulted in an improved facade on the residential floors & roof. With 30 days until our final review, it is finally time to go into production/presentation mode. (relief)
Dr. Mark Gillem, Professor of Architecture and Landscape Architecture at the University of Oregon, has been one of many teachers that I have held in high regard during my academic career. But Mark always stood out not only for his dedication and hard work but for his generosity and genuine care for his students.
I knew it from the first day of Mark's studio in Spring of 2006... I was in for something grand. Since that time I have had the opportunity to work on a number of projects with Mark and have benefited a great deal from every experience.
Mark's book "American Town: Building the Outposts of Empire" has just been acknowledged by the Environmental Design Research Association for one of its 2008 EDRA/Places awards.

Putting it in context and moving right along...
