The journal
We write things down as we go — what a material did, what a room needed, and where we were wrong.
A stain sits on the surface and wears off unevenly. Smoking changes the timber all the way through. The difference shows up in year three.
Most rooms are designed for noon and photographed at golden hour. We check them at four in the afternoon in November, when a room has nowhere to hide.
Before drawing anything on an existing building we spend a fortnight recording what is already there. It changes the project more often than the brief does.
Nothing filed under that topic yet.
