11.01.2022 We’re inspired by these examples of genius from both Australia, and afar. They not only show how engineering and creative design can be used in residential construction to address environmental, financial or structural issues they also demonstrate how these goals can be balanced with aesthetic appearance and, overall, the enjoyment of living space.

06.01.2022 In Flanders fields the poppies blow Between the crosses, row on row, That mark our place: and in the sky The larks, still bravely singing, fly Scarce heard amid the guns below.... We are the Dead. Short days ago We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, Loved and were loved, and now we lie In Flanders fields. Take up our quarrel with the foe: To you from failing hands we throw The torch; be yours to hold it high. If ye break faith with us who die We shall not sleep, though poppies grow In Flanders fields. John McCrae (18721918)
