25.01.2022 What is a THOW?

25.01.2022 Jims Japan launches merchandise on RedBubble :) One up and more to come.

24.01.2022 Why apartment balconies leak - Poor design and / or people in the construction chain changing the design to save money and pocket the savings / re-coup losses. Bottom line those who know good design and can enforce it (architects) are being cut-out by those who want to make more $$ and who label the architects as too expensive. Who pays in the end big-time? The unsuspecting apartment buyer. Done right from the start may seem to be costly, but it saves everyone from expensive after effects of poor design and / or construction. The $$ focused / ignorant / fraudulent culprits need to be made accountable. Thanks to Ross Taylor Associates for this excellent expose.

23.01.2022 When the energy crisis in 1973 occurred, E F Schumacher wrote a book "Small is Beautiful - Economics as if people mattered". In the current COVID 19 crisis I am thinking even more about "Habitat Design as if people and the earth mattered"

22.01.2022 Building a kindergarten using 400 year old trees which were killed by the 2011 Tsunami in Japan.

21.01.2022 Watch a house by Japanese Retail giant MUJI, under construction.

20.01.2022 Have a say about the development of The Spit, Gold Coast. Submissions close 31st March. https://spitmasterplan.mysocialpinpoint.com/the-spit-master

20.01.2022 Most people only renovate once, so the first time presents a lot of things you didn't know about until perhaps just a little to late...

20.01.2022 Local Authorities need to allow, where neighbour's amenity not compromised.

18.01.2022 Concrete free footings (for a Tiny Blox tiny home)

17.01.2022 Interesting read for anyone wondering about bushfire resistance, as well as saving energy.

17.01.2022 The new JSArchitect website is up and running. Using the "Virus Crisus" down time to re-invigorate services. www.architectjs.com.au

17.01.2022 A different type of office ceiling. Nature mural on walls.

15.01.2022 We're checking this out.

14.01.2022 A granny flat designed by James Stephenson, located on a Brisbane west rural residential property.

14.01.2022 Finishing touches to outside of the tiny home.

12.01.2022 An acquaintance with respiratory problems suspected COVID 19, but tested negative. The real answer turned out to be mould.

12.01.2022 Something timelessly attractive about simple house forms in the landscape.

11.01.2022 Occasionally one has to be reminded about the chemicals that could be harmful to us and the environment - for example in some flooring products.

09.01.2022 Classic Town Hall in Glen Innes.

08.01.2022 Found this unique "bubble house" at Karalee for sale. Curvy buildings are not easy to achieve, but this example looks impressive, at least from this drone camera viewpoint...

08.01.2022 People considering a one off building project can end up with a building designer when they thought they had an architect. The Board of Architects in Qld is actively prosecuting anyone who gives the impression of being an architect or providing architectural services without the required registration. If you think you can't afford an architect or don't know what an architect does why not at least get a proposal for your project?

08.01.2022 Tiny home completed Brisbane West

07.01.2022 Compact Mobile home now under construction... Framing and windows in one day.

07.01.2022 Office interiors can be more interesting places to work. My practise is to create the visualisation in 3D "in-house". By creating the realistic visualisation the design can be refined interactively.

06.01.2022 Design makes the difference to the quality and the cost of a project. Design is about striking the right balance between cost and quality. Every client has a different balance to strike.

06.01.2022 A sensible long overdue change.

06.01.2022 Our website is temporarily down whilst undergoing an overhaul. We will let you all know when the new one is up and running. JSA team.

05.01.2022 We solve the building problems you don't know you are going to have, before they become a problem, saving you time & money.

05.01.2022 This looks promising.

04.01.2022 Social housing in Vienna. Looks good.

03.01.2022 Now you can book online for a site consultation and report to give you some clarity about your home design improvement ideas, or building problems. https://www.architectjs.com.au//in-home-on-site-consult-an

01.01.2022 Good information about how to be sure your building project runs well. ABC TV's The Checkout Series 6 Episode 4
