The everyday built world.
Doorways, courtyards and the details that bring a street down to human scale.
Begin anywhere.
Architecture is not only a matter of celebrated buildings. It also appears in the width of a doorway, the meeting of two materials and the patch of shelter beside a street. This collection looks at ordinary relationships before grand explanations. You do not need specialist vocabulary to begin.
Prompt 01
Look at the ground floor
The part of a building nearest the pavement often tells you most about how it meets daily life.
Prompt 02
Notice a transition
Move from an open square to a smaller street and watch the scale change. Respect private thresholds.
Prompt 03
Describe before researching
