    It’s always a surprise when architecture schools still use the word ‘crit’ - such a loaded, mean little word, designed to describe feedback given to students in the most charged and aggressive way, within the most narrow of structures. ‘Review’ is much more useful.

    One year on from the triggering of A50 there is, of course, no form of that will benefit the British people but the goverment's decision to go for the option that will cause the most economic, cultural, academic and constitutional damage is mind boggling to say the least.

    ‘The cultural idea & conception of the architect has enjoyed wild success, while architecture itself has failed both as a business model and as a tool for beneficial social change’ (Ratti & Claudel 2015) Sobering words in ‘s new book, which I’m reading now

    Lovely piece in this month’s ‘Rethinking the Rural’ issue of where profiles the meandering journey we’ve taken with a decade of ‘making’ from the rural context of a working woodland in the West Country. We particularly like this image: lunchtime.

    Today: Oak milling in the Wyre Forest, under an Oak trussed canopy. Tragically, 80% of their Oak goes for firewood as it isn’t considered sufficient quality. This year’s Studio in the Woods will look at how to utilise this resource for buildings around the forest. Details soon.

    Anticlimactic but exciting at the same time. The arrival of my book by post. The product of 5 years of research and so many conversations. Thanks to everyone who helped

    I also love this one. Despite what Duncan might think, it isn’t one of Invisible Studios. Sadly.

    In 1976, 49% of UK architects worked for the public sector. Today it is 0.9%, and only 0.2% in London. Tragic.

    Such a great response by Caruso St. John to leave British Pavilion empty - ‘it appears to raise the question of Britain’s potential isolation in a post-Brexit world’.

    Business as usual at the AA then. For a nanosecond I imagined there could be a slight change in direction towards a renewed relevance within architectural education.
