    Of all the magnificent architecture featured on TWOP, they select 3 random pics from the last fortnight for the flyer?

    Why not just tear a picture of a car out of The West, and scribble the lecture details in crayon?

    Flyer seriously lacking in vibrancy, but kudos to whoever came up with the idea of asking Lazy to present to the architecture kiddies.

    Mrs G’day is recruiting a rent-a-crowd, and apparently warning the delicate petals about the obscene language youse cunts so often deploy on this site.

    I am experiencing a Neo-Modernist’s wet dream here in Melbourne, thankfully bereft of Cocos palms (well at least in the city and inner ‘burbs anyway!).

    Their less-than-successful takes on this du jour style (which sure beats Post-Modernism) craps all over what is going up in Perth for both sheer inventiveness and for execution of design function.

    Bleak City ain’t so bleak any more and as much as it pains me to say it, that’s one thing Bloody Jeff Kennett did help with getting the ball rolling in.

    I’m worried for you LA – there are some pretentious little shits in that architecture school that don’t want you to diss no architecture. I would love to come to your talk but I’m still in therapy from attending Curtin Architecture, there may be flashbacks and it may be unpleasant.

    Allow me to give you another example of archi-speak “to punctuate the exterior plane”
    yeah, they are thinking of putting in a door.

    I’m thinking of recreating a classic worst in Minecraft – any suggestions? Has to be something really worst, yet renderable in a cubic grid.

    The obvious choice would be a Dubrovnik Sausage King which I will go ahead with if I can mine enough gold, but I’d love to get a fully 3D Worst happening…
