Honest.

Meeting others to assist with with my book has been fascinating. Andy Foster from @raisearchitects has produced this great blog. Students do take time to read. https://t.co/3ib9m36pjf

The entrance screen & garage detailed in hardwood to bring a softer feel at ground floor.

The setback of the windows to provide more contrast through the shadows cast by deeper reveals.

The detailing of the rooftop glazing to provide a more elegant solution.

Shame.

They say God is in the details.

It's one of the reasons that we like to be involved in projects through to occupation. So that we can take care of things and ensure the concept is reflected in the details.

The patterned brick detailing, which we saw in a kind of Yves Klein blue, was to enliven the street and bring some joy to what is a home and not an office building.

Dawn's new green roof is worth the effort as it will act as a rainwater buffer, regulate indoor temperatures, save energy and encourage biodiversity. Not bad for World Green Roof Day #WGRD2020

[raise architects @raisearchitects]

@artistonabike Must be down to Dawn’s ‘encouragement’

[raise architects @raisearchitects]

Dawn’s #lockdownproject has been to build a garden room (or rather get husband Steve to). The sedum roof was installed on Saturday which just turned out to be World Green Roof Day #WGRD2020 Coincidence? Yeah, it was actually.

Our Millie has been developing her collage skills.

A big hint to Liam that he needs to make another model!

@niab1995 Thanks. Hopefully 🤞

[raise architects @raisearchitects]

Great to be out doing site visits again. From earlier in the week, derelict barns of post-medieval origin being given new life. The rural #welsh location means stunning views.

[raise architects @raisearchitects]

You will also learn about the running of the practice.

We’re looking for people who are enthusiastic designers, self-motivated and keen to learn.
