Yes! Gargoyles everywhere! Hahahhahhhahahhahah! Yes....gargoyles...mwahaha

Is this the future? Large scale robotic sculpting could unlock cheaper ornamentation. A win for the entire field of architecture in my opinion



Time to get to work!

Yeah, the last thing the construction industry needs is disrupting.

Had 3 different ppl send me tweets this week from VCs talking about ‘the construction industry’ & I’m always blown away by how much they get wrong. (Photo of my current view for algo tax)

31 years ago, I graduated from high school. 31 years before I was born, Edward Hopper painted Nighthawks.

My father-in-law is a short-order cook. It is difficult to get his attention because he is lost in wonder. We were admiring toasters together years ago and I asked him what it would cost to build it today I will never forget his answer. "We can’t we don’t know how to do it"

If @MurphyGuitar thinks that he's The World's Best Father, why didn't HE get a Lego A-Frame kit for father's day?

Is this office building Haunted?

Join a church, get on the property committee, convince them (theologically and philosophically) to divert all church resources to building a new fancy building. I know plenty of architects who would love to assist!

We actually don’t. Maybe technically we can, but not theologically or philosophically. We can’t make these because we won’t make them.



My father-in-law is a builder It is difficult to get his attention in a magnificent space because he is lost in wonder We were in a cathedral together years ago and I asked him what it would cost to build it today I will never forget his answer We can’t we don’t know how to do it

I support this only if all Senators wear powdered wigs as the founding fathers intended.

America's founders intended Washington D.C. to be a city full of classical architecture. Most Americans also prefer traditional building designs over modern ones. Introduced legislation to reinstate classicism as the preferred federal style. rubio.senate.gov/public/index.c…

Somebody hands you a blank check. They ask you to fill in a number that would make you never seek any more money ever again. What’s your number?



Ah yes, nothing like soffit lights to make a house look fancy at night. The flickering is an elegant touch.


Took this photo of this Houston townhome because they have redone the stucco above every window. They probably left out flashing. The more I look at this, the worse it gets.

Today is the 102 year anniversary of the Tulsa Race Massacre in which white supremacist terrorists mass murdered 300 Black Americans. Here's how media reported on it—a complete erasure of Black people. 3 survivors are with us today—yet Tulsa & Oklahoma have paid 0 reparations.

John Wick IV, great fight scenes, stupid concept and lazy writing.

It's back: "The bill denounces modern, 'brutalist' styles of buildings made popular in the 20th century. Buildings should instead be modeled after the "Greek and Roman antiquity" such as the U.S. Capitol and the Supreme Court." foxnews.com/politics/exclu…
