Back in Bucuresti

After all the wedding fun we headed back to Bucharest for the final week of my stay.  There we spent the week visiting people, maybe a few too many, but it was great to see everybody, especially another week of Ana. It was nice to have my mom and Horia meet Ana’s parents.  I think [ READ MORE ]

Wedding Day Two

Since we were in the middle of nowhere, or like Horia pointed out: “Where you hang the map,” nobody rushed away from the wedding.  So, with everyone still around,  we had some organized and less organized fun. First we visited the private art collection of the Pipas family, in the town of Tisa, at the [ READ MORE ]

Going to a Wedding

My friend Karina’s wedding was in Maramures, in the Northern part of Romania.  So we (me, Ana, my mom, Horia, and Teresa) took advantage of this to do some tourism in the area.  I had never been.  We first went up to the Moldova region of Romania to see the land marks there which are [ READ MORE ]

About:

This blog is part of my work with computational architecture. I studied at the AA DRL and have been working with various collaborators on projects around the world since finishing in February 2009.

I am interested in how parametric design can be used to simultaneously distribute and articulate space. I try to achieve this through the processes of architecture from conception to construction.
