unbuilt works, on-going works, built works
revisited -- new competitions, pre-qualifications, competition results,
exhibitions, reviews -- delicious tidbits,
appalling statistics, useless scholarship

- 375 Edinburgh Road, Castlecrag NSW 1968 - Hugh Buhrich
"I believe that Hugh August Buhrich's 375 Edinburgh Road Castlecrag
(1968-1972) is the finest modern house in Australia. There are really no
other contenders - unless one considers Hugh and Eva's first house
(1939-49) just up the way at 315." (Peter Myers, in exhibition catalog
of "House - Hugh Buhrich 1972" Garry Anderson Gallery, Sydney Australia
10 Sep. - 5 Oct. 1991)

- "Architects generally are dour people. Since they're half
professionals, half artists, neither side of them is ever entirely
content." (Luscombe B, time_08.04.96)

"The mathematician Gauss, it is said, protected his
work by first proving a proposition, then refining the proof until its
argument, though incontestable, offered no hint of his original thought
patterns to other mathematician." (Jeffrey Kipnis, frustated, on OMA
design process - elCq79)
"... This will require me to show you fragments of my own work, so
that you must prepare now for a decent from the sublime to the, well,
not so sublime. ..." (Henry Cobb, Harvard GSD Lecture
1985)
