Last week, we attended the Pollard Thomas Edwards 'Happy Homes' launch. Happy Homes communicates what residents experience as positive in the design of their homes, with information from architects and multidisciplinary teams, and translates the information into a usable form. We look forward to seeing the next stage of the project, the Happy Homes ‘toolkit’, which aims to help design teams to embed ‘social value’ into their designs at the earliest stage.

Getting a second opinion. It's normal for doctors, why not for architects?! Our homes are important - aesthetically, functionally, financially and for our wellbeing. Getting a second opinion gives you the opportunity to explore your options, check your gut feelings and ask those questions you need to feel confident in your build or renovation. In this video Sarah Hobday-North discusses the Architect GP approach to second opinions that honour the work already done, and give you the peace of mind you need to make great decisions.

Inspiration and improvements can come from everywhere. Inviting others in to discuss and offer feedback is what good design and architecture is about. Of course there is a balance to be struck with subjectivity and objectivity but the key thing is to communicate!
With Haringey Council's planning team coming to site in Muswell hill this month, I found some old footage from March of when Kunle Barker also popped in for a tour! I find it really valuable to get industry experts from various complementing fields to come and discuss, question and critique the work we do. These external feedback loops not only allow us to sense check our design logic and approach but also often introduce us to new products, people and processes to improve the process as a whole. Kunle may have just popped around with personal interest - but even this informal tour catalysed further improvements for our clients. I hope the round table discussion with the planners will help us all implement better methodologies for working on constrained and sensitive sites moving forwards. Together, the aligned thinking will be incredibly productive. The big reveal will be coming soon! ----- (Thanks for the sneaky background footage Ian Angeles Canlas) #ExternalPerspective #FeedbackLoops #AlwaysLearning #SustainableArchitecture #StakeholderEngagement #SameTeamThinking #NewViews #LowEnergyHomes #Architecture #Planning #SiteVisits #Throwback #Design #Warehome

Today we officially launched an international pattern book design competition allowing architects and architecture students from around the world to design the future face of Sydney and NSW while speeding up the delivery of new homes. Housing remains the single biggest cost of living pressure for people across NSW and this competition will mean the winning designs used by developers will have access to an accelerated approval pathway. The accelerated pathway will allow builders to have homes approved and built faster, providing homes to those who need them sooner. Our planning reforms to low and mid rise housing are fundamental to the Pattern Book competition and will provide diversity of housing for our diverse community. https://ow.ly/Otbo50SrpkQ

In an age dominated by the boxy uniformity of architecture, we must question the status quo. Conventional designs hinder creativity and fail to resonate with their environments. The future of architecture lies in embracing diverse forms and innovative materials that inspire a genuine connection with community and context. Those who cling to outdated methodologies risk becoming obsolete. As leaders in the field, we must champion design that melds beauty with functionality, crafting spaces that are both engaging and reflective of their surroundings. Now is the time to shift from mere structures to masterpieces that elevate human experience.

An architect’s hand-drawn sketch is more than lines on paper — it’s the bridge between a dream and reality. Architects have the unique skill of turning abstract ideas into tangible designs, guiding clients from their initial vision to a plan they can see, review, and refine. ✍️ Whether you’re imagining a sustainable home, a vibrant community space, or a commercial project, partnering with an architect ensures every detail aligns with your goals, environment, and lifestyle. #ArchitectureSketch #ConceptualDesign #HawaiiArchitecture
