What a journey this has been with St John's College in shaping this phase of the landscape master plan. Heritage, ecology, stormwater, pedestrian movement, services, security, geology, context, view lines and ridge lines — it really has it all.
After all the exploring, understanding and bringing all these layers together, we’re now looking forward to seeing the vision start to take shape on the ground.

New site, new discoveries. 🌿
A day of exploring a new site in Silverton, tucked alongside the Daspoort Ridge, as part of an initial landscape audit.
The southern aspect reveals a rich tapestry of colour, materials and textures, adding layers of character and a strong sense of place to the site and its wider context.
Plenty still to uncover, explore and understand. Looking forward to seeing where the landscape takes us. 🌱

Something different. Instead of the ‘contemporary’ birthday greeting of sending a message and with some inspiration from the kids, did a little doodle birthday sketch for a friend who is going through a bit a tough time. Also serves as inspiration for an ecopool retro fit proposal that’s on the drawing board. Some down time for the right hand side of the brain to take control.

Currently hooked on Joey Santore’s Concrete Botany. A passage I read on the train this morning hit especially hard, and when I looked up from the page, this was the view staring back at me. Couldn’t have asked for better timing. ✨📖🌿🤔

Progress on the cremnophytic wall is rewarding if not slow. Been a challenge to source the right plant material for the wall but in the meantime, what has been planted, is performing super well. In this case the cliff dwelling Aloe arborescens subsp. Umzinyathi is in full flower mode after being in the wall just six months from cuttings. The grassland landscape is starting to infiltrate the wall either by seed or encroachment (which is just fine) whilst the bird life gorges itself on the grass seeds and collecting of nest building material. Even though many of the planting cavities lie empty, it has made space for lizards, frogs, spiders, millipedes (shongololo) and crickets to make it their own. Curious to see how the wall transforms during the winter months.

Been dabbling around with AI of late to liven up some really fast and dirty conceptual sketches to be more presentable. Been a mixed experience of surprises and frustrations, a learning experience to dialogue with a machine in order to get the desired results. Not sure if the workflow is more efficient yet, but suppose with more experience and AI savvy, it can become a useful exploration tool in the conceptual and planning phases of the design process.
