I have made a new page, one to replace my current two (this one and @ClassicalArchit), dedicated to the beauty of traditional architecture the world over. The new page is @int_trad_arch, International Traditional Architecture. This page is, therefore, replaced, but will remain up

Sorry for being gone for so long, I lost motivation to post here due in part to school. As part of my return, I wish to say that this page and this page’s sister @ClassicalArchit is devoted to not only architectural diversity but also to racial and cultural diversity...

... as such, I stand alongside BLM and give them my full, if limited, support. In taking this position I also take a stand against fascism in all its myriad and terribly forms. I know there are some ‘traditionalists’ following me, and so if you cannot take a small Architecture...

Solidarity to all those affected by the Notre-Dame fire. Thankfully, at least some of the artefacts and relics have been saved, and the majority of the stone work remains.

The Cathedral will go on, and the people of Paris, France, and the world as a whole will rebuild.
