oh goody, now we’re lionizing walz AND frey jfc

Eco-Retro Disco? Low-carbon dive bar? A menu board? Without prices listed?? Everyone involved here, please check yourself, lest you wreck yourself.

AIA MN's RFQ for their office relocation is a total mess. Starts off stating it's an RFQ, then makes references to "proposals" before ending by calling itself an RFP. jfc

He’s the person we need right now to shut down all this Make America Beautiful Again bullshit.

As I’m sure you know, each building is the creation of an individual person, the singular architect. So this is really incredible that another individual can pick up where Frank left off!

Tedious financials are triggering the Heatherwick Boringometer™️, can’t we get back to talking about his novel(ty) architecture!?

that’s what she said

Did the US orchestrate the ousting of Chelsea's manger?

moved not one, but two aesop pump bottles in for the sink shot lol

Most ppl on Apple Music use their real name and likeness for their user and I think that’s just too LinkedIn for a music site.

Funny that the 12K ppl/yr die from stair falls famously opaque number from famously opaque NSC is back on here, shortly after another poster was bitching about cost-negligible handrail returns blowing up budgets or whatever. They’re all just angry and irrational, friendly fire is inevitable.

Making up a code development method to get angry at… Angry laypeople on here substituting their personal feelings in lieu of experience (which they don’t have) arguing that model code orgs use personal feelings to write code (which they don’t).

writing out my new years resolutions

My restaurant story of 2025 was $18 slop bowl king Sweetgreen adding servos & a computer to grocery story bulk aisle dispensers to make the hamster food trough experience “sexy”, then selling that tech for a $30M more than they paid for it. No profit in the stores yet (ever?), but slop tubes FTW!

Ending the year with a reminder that only one North London club earned a trophy in 2025. COYS

love these label-stop vignettes of bowtied civil servants or members of parliament

kutsher's coffee shop, thompson, new york, 1977

Finally got my copy of Ghostly’s retrospective book and was relieved to see the night manager has a section at the end so I don’t have to light this heavy tome on fire and yeet it into a lake.

This time of year, if I were to mute "2026 pricing updates" from vendor emails, my inbox would be empty...and theoretically, pricing would remain the same too.

This was the dumbest article I read this year.

You know if this ever gets used there are wet spots and drips everywhere. May as well leave open cans of stain and sealer for continuous touchups.

#OnThisDay Dec 29 1928: The iconic Art Moderne tower crowning the new Sears Roebuck mail-order center in South Minneapolis nears completion. Massive in its day, the 1M sq/ft building is still the 2nd largest in the state in terms of leasable space, after the Mall of America.

Amending this to clarify my opinion on this is based on the fact it’s USC, so I assume he’s not responsible for paying the tuition, otherwise xfer to someplace way cheaper or test the job market lol

RE: IPAL & the USC sophomore who completed the ARE — amazing act and sounds like a wise kid. IPAL remains a weird thing to me because the school blog admits they don’t teach anything covered by ARE, just study groups on the side…

Using the snow day to read DLI’s single stair apartment building draft study…

No whistle, and not a word from the commentators lmao

“A satellite dish should appear to grow easily from its roofline and be shaped to harmonize with its surroundings if Nature is manifest there.” ~ Frank Lloyd Wright

1st Quarter going pretty much as expected, with the elite QB capitalizing on the mistakes of his lesser counterpart. Vikings 7, Lions zilch.

Watched Home Alone for the first time, and unless I missed something, I must reasonably assume Harry was an actual cop who burglarized homes on the side. The person I watched with said no, but I saw nothing to confirm otherwise. John Hughes’ edgy, unflinching writing lol

Before Instagram-centric concepts from New York came to town, Minneapolis used to be a proper place for semi-nude personal care services in a group environment.

The North Loop is a ridiculous place, which probably makes it a perfect fit for a concept as ridiculous as Bathhouse (love the double 'h'), but if you're going to construct a new building, and you're going with fake early 20th century windowless warehouse, you can and should do better.

“nearly”

i’m good, thanks tho

Amazing to see one of these late 70s McDonald’s light fixtures in person (and still operational!!!). Wasn’t able to convince the owner to part with it quite yet, but hopefully one day….

Wow, Greg. Better hope no one in court asks about the largest & most expensive WH reno/add-on of the last 100yrs that happened *w/out approval* under Obama and you back in the day.

Deeply offended by DJ Moore saying the filthy cuss words “shit” and “ass” in his postgame interview on the Lord’s network, FOX.

This casino proposal reflects the community it serves. lmao

Arne Slot’s brilliant gambit to park the bus while up 2 men.

An act of unspeakable Dutch-on-Dutch violence.

Chewing Gum Check for TOTLIV: ✅ Frank ✅ Romero ✅ Spence …

Having priced all manner of bldg crap for the last 10yrs since switching to dev side work, I can say that >90% of railings are custom & cost of returning them to wall/flr/post is negligible. Would never be considered anything for budgeting purposes. Furthermore…

we could’ve had the pyramid if we had our shit together

I think there’s a considerable amount of you on here drinking HDP

I, for one, appreciate the backdrop to the photoshoot for the woman whomst we are ritually shaming being a Chip & Joanna space
