1. I've thought for a long time we need architectural competitions
for new kinds of housing to meet our new needs.

3. Tempest around a teacup?



I love the piano - is this a Nero theme? What do you do when the torrential rains fill up your cup, er, house?
The diving board into the raging flood waters is a tad surreal, even for this design! :rofl:
