Integrated Annotation
I just read a fantastic article on Design Milk all about a recent magazine article in wallpaper* magazine. The article itself is on about Parker Morris standards – architectural standards for maximising the living space in a house – but is presented in an incredibly creative way.
Architects in Film
Off The Record has an interesting article about Architects as characters in film. An interesting trend of using the occupation to represent someone eccentric, troubled, but brilliant and wealthy.
Redesign your Farmer’s Markets
Good magazine is running a competition to Redesign Your Farmer’s Markets
Lessons from Architectural Portfolios
Over at Archinect they are running an interesting series called Archinect’s Official Portfolio Guide – a guide to success in the world of architecture. The emphasis on the architect’s portfolio is of particular interest to me, with the first article in the series focussing on the student’s portfolio. As it turns out, the pointers and tips for architectural portfolios are wholly relevant for other realms of design as well.

Another project from Urban Islands – A fake National Geographic article from a distant future.
Urban Islands Comic
BLDGBLOG has a rundown on another project from Urban Islands – a horror comic book called Cockatoo: Isle of the Dead.
