Poems of an Indian summer
To throw a shadow on the earth
The Abode of Fancy
The fire of oak logs
The housewarming ceremony
The perverse arrangement of older houses
The pitched roof
I could never live in a house like that
Secreted
Tree, leaf, house, city
20 Minutes in Manhattan
At Home: A Short History of Private Life
Homes at Night
You're living in your very last house
A Song by Lo-Fang
Rain Chains & Musical Drains
A rain chain in winter; Dresden Kunsthof Passage; Drainage planters near Pike Place Market in Seattle.
If there is a larger takeaway here perhaps it is about paths of least resistance, with regards to both the actual flow of water and design decisions. On the one hand, it is easy to blindly follow regional precedents and traditions with long histories (or grab whatever is handy at the hardware store). On the other hand, sometimes it makes sense to take a step back and decide consciously how to reveal (or conceal) a natural process.
