Summer Empty Nest

Summer Empty Nest

We are fledgling empty nesters for another week.  Our oldest is in Italy studying Latin for the month of July, and we dropped off the younger two at their respective camps in northern Alabama last weekend.  In truth, this is not the first time we have been childless for a couple of weeks:   our kids’ camp […]

Five Ways an Architect Can Save You Money

Last weekend was my 25th college reunion (#legendary), and the whole family attended. A 15-hour car ride left me with some time to catch up on social media, and there’s nothing better for Facebook/Instagram surfing than I-81 in Virginia. Summer is peak renovation season it seems. Owners want to have renovation projects completed by the […]

"Groovy" painted on the floor of a midcentury home’s utility/rec room.

Handprints

Groovy. Painted on the floor of a midcentury home’s utility/rec room.  I love thinking about how the parents of these teenagers came around to handing their kids a couple of cans of paint and a paintbrush and let them loose.  Maybe the slab painting wasn’t sanctioned.  Regardless, the lingering effect of the graffiti on the […]

Women In Architecture Wednesday

This year, I have been meeting with a group of amazing women at our Birmingham American Institute of Architects chapter in an effort to engage women in the profession.  Specifically, we are working on mentoring programs to help women in all stages of their careers,  as studies show that professionals with mentors have demonstrably greater […]

Expert Guides

When we were in Italy this past summer, we worked with Context Travel for our day at the Vatican Museums.  Being vaguely familiar with the crowds made me a little nervous about negotiating the vast museum complex with the kids, and I wanted to make sure they saw the things they needed to see, as […]

“Do you know any contractors?”

Absolutely.  I know great contractors who do amazing work.  The more important question, however,  is who are the contractors that would be a good fit for your project, your investment, and your family.  Residential construction is personal, and there is no getting around it: your contractor becomes a part of your family for a little […]

Venice dinner: octopus, pasta, braised artichokes, and tiramisu

Inspiration and Ideas August 25, 2017

Tiny Kitchens

This Sunday, we will celebrate my youngest child’s birthday, and he has requested that we recreate the meal we learned to cook in Venice with Anna, a very talented chef.  (http://bit.ly/2wb1nBF)  The experience, of course, will be impossible to replicate entirely.  Certainly the ingredients will come from a supermarket rather than the fruttivendolo and markets […]

Perfectly Imperfect

While walking in Rome one evening, I asked my kids about what they noticed was different about life in Italy and their life here.  Aside from “I can’t get stracciatella gelato every night,”  they actually picked up on some of the principles that had been part of my architectural history and urban design classes, although in […]

Rome and Venice Trip - Photo 1

Inspiration and Ideas July 25, 2017

Changing the Lens

We recently returned from a long planned family vacation to Italy, specifically Rome and Venice.  I spent a semester in Venice in graduate school and traveled fairly extensively in Italy during that time, and my husband and I had also spent our honeymoon there 18 years ago.  Those long ago trips were recorded not only […]

Starting a new architectural design project

This Is How It Starts . . .

One of the downsides of my early morning boot camp is that the music will be on repeat in my head the rest of the day. Sometimes that is good. Sometimes, it is not. The other day, the Colbie Caillat song, “This Is How it Starts” got stuck. Stop me on the corner Swear you […]
