Shifting Things Around
It’s a little difficult to write a post everyday that provides a good summary of the day’s news headlines. Most of my insights would be second hand. Plus there are sites that sort of do that already. I’m also a little busy trying to find my first job as an architect and being a freelance Art Director for a web design company. I’ll use this area to highlight interesting architectural and design websites, in the meantime, until I come up with a better idea.
I’ve come across a new site - Space Invading. It’s a simple website that provides great images of built work and projects on a fairly regular basis.
You’ll also notice that, I have regrouped some of the news sources by topical focus. Different magazines and blogs have different scopes. In the meantime, enjoy all the headlines.
