Fascinating, not least to see the almost complete absence of women from this sphere only 26 years ago.

2024 deadline for the Housing Design Awards extended from 5 March to end of the day on Tuesday 12 March. Still a fortnight to upload images and data of your latest scheme with recent planning or PC and join the most potent design resource on the internet hdawards.org
Listening now. Society and politics in miniature. Have always thought a planning committee meeting on a major scheme would be a good one-act play. Well worth tuning in.

Obvious perhaps, but so well put. A call to action.

A stunning day in the capital. When the sun goes down, I’ll be chairing a varied crowd at this: barbican.org.uk/whats-on/2024/…
SE London Moderne on this crisp Saturday has a hopeful slash anarchic vibe.
Claire Bennie authored the housing section in #London of the Future. Bennie discusses the primary concerns for London, including the #climate crisis, affordable housing, and #sustainability. @clairebennie @chromaphotog @LucieGPhoto #Affordablehousing. buff.ly/40zJdYF
Who wants to sit next to a wall of glass? I don’t. Floor to ceiling glazing is expensive. It makes flats, offices, cafes and shops hard to lay out, exposed and overheated. Can we change the trend on this? (If not, why?)

Does London need a citizen assembly to nut out the tricky trade-offs inherent in London's housing dilemma? What about a one page 'citizen dashboard' visible for every new development? Read the NLA's latest housing report (research and words by me) here: nla.london/insights/housi…
Architecture Twitter (X): I’m a lifelong regular visitor to New York but haven’t been for six years. What inspiring or innovative building or landscape should I go and see next week?
Been to the Olympic Park recently? It’s a generous, joyful, life-affirming beacon shining through the otherwise Stygian darkness of our public sphere. Go.
I WONDER IF THE DEVELOPERS WHO PUT THIS MULTIPLE TIMES ON THEIR HOARDINGS KNOW WHAT IT MEANS BECAUSE I AM NOT SURE TBH
