Just seen this on the Archiseek irish page, thought I would stick it up to pretty the page. It looks like we are getting a bit of eye candy built over here, enjoy!

Here's another call for help from the EASA knowledge pool.

I've finally started working on my diploma. And, as for any project, I am looking for precedents.

The site is about 3 ha, located at a railroad junction, in an old industrial area (ex paper and metal recycling plant which is now moving to the outer city).

The programme is supposed to be socially active - startup apartmets with delayed rent payment, business incubator offices with seed capital and things like that.

So, I am looking for projects that:

1. are located at or close to a railroad, and are ex-industrial areas

2. are socially residential or mixed-residential

Also I am looking for any examples of startup apartments and social housing (social not in square metres size, but in concept).

Any and all help greatly appreciated!

Cheers, Boris / slovenia

Part one.

Archinet, now there's a waste of a couple of hours. And because it's educational (sometimes only in the broadest sense) it neither; feels like a real break, nor is it particularly productive. Any hoo, today my rss has flagged up two stories whose headlines sent me back thinking about the workshop I took part in, in Budapest.

'Outside the big box' archinect.com

and 'Brand building' archinect.com

Realising this will probably be the death throws of a conversation about 'outside the box' leads me to...

Part two.

I'd like to make a plea on behalf of my final University project... I really need good quality photos of both the finished box in location, and photos of the group working in our dynamic way.

I would also really appreciate any good pictures of Tuzracter (please forgive the spelling) or any of the other student type places that were reused old industrial buildings. Because being a student I have done something very similar and nothing mainstream really fits as good description and I am too poor to even fly back to BCN to take the final pictures of the site I am working on let alone Budapest... starting to ramble, so will stop now.

After all this architecture reading I deserve a break, so it's time for a cup of tea and a penguin biscuit.

Hvaså dér!

I'm going to Barcelona with a group of designschool archischool students 11-16th March an I'm looking for some tips concerning places to go, people to see. I know about most of the sights, been there did that etc. but I want to find some of the hidden jewels of Barcelona. Cool design and architectcompanies that we could visit, a local guide with immense knowledge of architecture and design. Any ideas? P-p-please contact me,

Forever grateful - Fredrik (Denmark, easa 99/03/04)

Still pining for an exhibition in MAnchester before June. It's looking like my tutor might be able to cover the costs of printing the posters from the Swiss web-site. Does anyone (Inara?)have a digital copy of the posters which got made for the Moscow INCM exhibition which they could post/ftp/get to me? I would be over the moon if they did! Also if there's anything other than the swiss & Mosocw posters which is easliy available in digital format, would I be able to get hold of it? I'm fed up of explaining EASA to people here and getting a response which involves a wink and an "Ahh..!...I see...(not)" type comment, so I have a huge urge to show the UK, what I'm really on about. All the best!

Matt

p.s: Adam? Are you there, I had your blog link and lost it, I wanted to see how your 'Long pork' ended up.
