Spent the weekend in Cologne w/ Michael Hensel checking out what is new in Germany. Here are some images of the new Peter Zumthor Building (under construction) and a shot of a Renzo Piano department store, Colognes version of Selfridges.
Went to a good lecture this week at the AA by Mark Goulthorpe of dECOi Architects. I think he is doing some seriously cutting edge work in the area of computation to manufacture. Sexy designs and techniques!

/Baanchan/ is the name of my future office that I will open with one of my friends. It means Sidedish in Korean, but there are some other meanings, something like "thesis-antithesis-synthesis". Anyway, I would like to express my ideas about architecture, my hobby and my study in U.K. through this blog.
