🏗️ Building Beauty 🌺


In June 2020, I moved onto a beautiful property amidst the redwoods in the Santa Cruz Mountains.


While here, I completed a program called Building Beauty, a one-year graduate program in architecture and design centered on the concepts, principles, and process of Christopher Alexander.


Much can and will be said on Christopher Alexander and how I came to be familiar with his work, but for now, much Building Beauty related content can be found exploring my X thread here.
