An article in Mansion Global featuring our Starburst House.
“It’s not something from the past but something in the future. For those curious in mind and spirit, there’s the opportunity to push the envelope further forward and create these iconic pieces of architecture.”
I am thrilled to be joining the jury for the inaugural #ArchitizerVisionAwards, a global award honoring the best in architectural representation!

A big thank you to Megan Slack for her lovely article in Homes & Gardens and kind words of encouragement.
Blanket - Art and Architecture for the Curious Mind
About a year ago I started talking with friends about starting an art and architecture magazine.
A print magazine. An old-school print magazine.
We want to create something that gives us an excuse to deep dive into some of the things that we love and are fascinated by.
Our mission is to create something that is enjoyable to read for all - something that engages a casual reader as much as the hardcore obsessives amongst us.
Over time we lost momentum though. We got daunted by what a giant task it would be to do as a hobby project.
At the start of this year we regrouped. We had a stern word with ourselves and kicked things into gear.
We’re going to do this.
Our first issue is very loosely themed around water. Very loosely.
If you know anyone who might like to contribute please put them in touch.
Thanks for the article Cristina!
The Starburst House in Italian magazine MFL.
An article in Swiss magazine Batimag about our Starburst House in California.
I don’t manage to post every article about our work, but this one did make me chuckle! (Our starburst house in Joshua Tree isn’t built yet.) All being well construction will commence in the spring.
Business Insider have featured our Starburst House this week. If you visit our instagram feed you’ll see a special little animation that we made for the article that shows the house in a new way!
Another lovely article about our container house in Joshua Tree on Design Tellers.
A big thanks to Maria Anton Sanz and the team at Container magazine in Mexico for their piece about our Joshua Tree Residence. (Container is an art and design magazine that has nothing to do with the shipping boxes.)
“A good architecture provokes reactions”, this is how our special chat with James Whitaker begins, he is the founding architect of Whitaker Studio, creator of this “contained” house. “I don’t feel excited about buildings that simply do their work. Whether the architectural piece leads to a visceral emotion or there is an intellectual depth in the work, I feel attracted by architecture with certain je ne sais quoi. A work that responds to all the practical demands asked (avoiding rain and heat, for example), but then it is taken further and it becomes an artwork you can live in”.
