Sunrise Bike Ride – That Week in Auroville Part 2

Continuing from Part 1 from our week in Auroville, this was our first full day in Auroville, and a full day it was. The previous evening over dinner a few of us talked about waking up early to go for a bike ride around Auroville, as a way to explore a bit and to maybe…

Getting to Auroville – That Week in Auroville Part 1

I’ve mentioned in passing about the time spent in Auroville for last semester’s design studio, but I haven’t really sat down and wrote about the whole experience. I thought I’d do a little blog series about that week in April, which my feelings have shifted slightly since immediately returning. I won’t give you a history…

Architecture by Anthony

It’s been a few more months since my last post, and I’ve been really terrible with posting here. I wanted to do a quick post to mention something that you may not be aware, but I’ve started a new thing, Architecture by Anthony. At the moment it exists as a YouTube channel and Instagram account,…

I’m unsure about the appropriateness of my writing this piece, mostly due to possible negative repercussions for future career prospects. But my conscious…

Where Am I Now?

It’s been 42 days since I wrote the sentence “Or maybe I need to take a few more steps back and think ‘Should I do something else?’” on a blog post explaining my situation at the time. If you haven’t read it, a brief summary is I lost all motivation for architecture, and not just…

An Explanation

I want to use this post to explain a couple things, and for me personally as a way to get some thoughts out. I have touched on briefly about this in scattered tweets and Instagram posts but I don’t think I’ve properly addressed here on the blog. As many of you may know, I am…

As is tradition on the blog I thought I’d share the best nines of 2016, including the best nine blog posts that were written this year. These are based on the number of views, and it gives me a form of indication of what you like reading and seeing. It’s been an interesting year to…
