Where I'd rather be...

Gosh, it has been a little too long between updates. I blame the hot weather here in Melbourne, 43 degrees. I often think that the heat bothers me more in Melbourne, in part because we don't get that much of it, but also because it seems we rarely build for it. I lived in a little hot box in the city for a few years, with air conditioning, but nonetheless a stuffy and uncomfortable existence. Here is a design to cool us all down.

The use of wood is soothing and the straight lines seem to echo the straight lines of the horizon.
