29th September 2023 Friday - back to school

The young people have been working hard on this project, and since I finalised the model they have completed the drawings detailing the main ideas. 

Just in time for the client to visit our office for a presentation, coincidentally Laila, Kamal and Aysar are visiting as well. I invited the young man who is studying architecture to sit in at the meeting if he wished. Ultimately not only he but his parents attend the meeting as well, his mother giving supportive comments and affirming some of our ideas; the stacking/matchbox ideas for overlaying spaces and usage. Very Aussie, she says - referring to the open-ness of the layouts perhaps

For me, the highlight of the meeting came when he said, I understand your concept now - and proceeded to imagine how the spaces can be used.
