Part 1 - The vent begins. We have a small architectural practice in Inglewood, and we are blessed with a Hair Salon on the ground floor, and a Lash person who relatively recently set up shop downstairs as well. (Crowded) She was evicted from the building next door. Anyway, I digress. The real...

Would anyone object to me venting "office style" next to the water cooler, about the tenant below me and their "expletive" covidiocy ? Just thought I would vet it before launching... https://tenor.com/sRDp.gif

So, what would it feel like on a roughly 8ftx8ft balcony?

I'll have to agree. I've been flip flopping between the initial renderings and looking at the construction process, and can't help but wonder if value engineering killed the architectural language. There were some earlier indications of a diagrid set back from the screen-façade, which at least...

Agreed. Nexen IMHO.

There is something wrong with the camera match in this shot. The scale factor seems wrong with regards to the contextual building adjacent, and the balconies. I only bring it up because it makes the tower and podium look really forced in. I guess I'm just "nit picking". I don't mind the tower...

Just to Clarify, CMLC released an RFP for theatre consultancy only, (among other RFPs for other consultants). Fisher Dachs is that consultancy. The RFP for prime architectural services will not be released until early March.

oh dear....

That’s right. The ESL version is nuts.

Jacobs Ladder (was listening to RUSH)

This would be the lott across from the previously proposed project by Henriquez+Partners.

Frankly, I'm a little concerned about building envelope continuity. I'm looking at the Typar Metro Wrap application, and the inconsistent taping. Kind of giving me cold sweats. Although, the photos are a couple weeks back. Also not too sure small green metal mock-ups qualify as an opening act.

Or the mass structural columns from level 2 supporting..... balconies.... or are they just cladding covers? Just saying, again. 😐 maybe there is some rational? Anyone know?

Congrats Chinook! Also, great thread creation. Our boy was born in NYC, while we were working at Skidmore, and just last week we were reminiscing on those times while I we toted him around in the baby bjorn, (highly recommended must have). Time also flies, as you have probably already heard from...

I haven't heard of corrugated metal being used as a drainage layer. I have heard of lath strips which are not metal, and they reduce thermal heat transfer + bridging. The orientation of these panels pieces seems to imply they may be used as a drainage layer, but I'm not sure it makes sense from...

@JesseLikesCities Actually a really well taken photo. Super crisp. I took the liberty of applying a few thoughts.

Correct, which is why I used the term recommendation. There is a valid point about the "terminus ante quem vs. post quem" (before vs after). I'm less concerned about Cidex checking the attendance box, but the actual UDRP members. There have been some recent high profile projects, of major...
