It would seem that I am getting a reputation where cocktails are involved … ironic since I don’t really drink all that much.

This is the 9th annual and highly anticipated What to Get an Architect for Christmas gift guide. It’s hard for me to process that when I wrote the very first gift guide back in 2010 that this would become the most requested blog post that I would write every single year.

Seeing wasps in another light, a Blog Off post. The topic for this round of the Blog Off is "What is Home?". I moved to Florida nearly 20 years ago. So I spent the next 15 years or so killing anything that crawled, buzzed or spun a web. These structures that I used to assume were nests are actually brooding chambers.

When in doubt of what materials to use, use them all and have fun with it. Instead of having your home bar feel like a solid area that does not blend with what you already have, blend it all together by mixing your materials. The resources used will ensure the area feels fresh. We think not!

With the Holidays approaching, most of us are looking for some new ways to decorate this year.

Coordinate Your List With Your Roommate: Odds are that you’ve already thought to make a list of all of the things you’ll need to take with you to school. In all likelihood, you’ll be going home for Thanksgiving or Christmas break before the seasons change, so lighten your load by only packing items you’ll need until then.
