Frightening information on Stuxnet - time to plan living 'off grid'...

Electricity generation from hot water, or micro geothermal energy. This works in a tubular form, and is much simpler than conventional solutions. Still some work to do, but great potential!

Interesting experiment in Sweden for a family to try to achieve a reduction in their carbon footprint to 1 tonne per person.

Lazy, or just crap at DIY? A broccoli tree house - fun, but why?

Another immaculate Japanese house - this one is in Matsugaoka, wherever that is...

Benthem Crouwel's classic temporary (demountable) house in Almere

Very interesting proposal (in terms of architecture and landscape design) for an 'urban meadow' in Budapest.

So many fantastic details in this Japanese house. Extraordinarily bold front elevation.

Some very cool design in this Madrid Museum and Illustration Centre.

I may have bookmarked this before - can't remember. It's a beautiful refurbishment of a former industrial building. Wonderful!
