BOKA Powell was initially commissioned to conduct an in-depth business analysis and prepare the building program for new apartment housing at the University of Texas at El Paso, and was subsequently selected to deliver the project as a part of a Design-Build team. The building program was intended to give the selected design team a “workbook” that would provide guidelines for creating new architecture that conforms to the greater campus fabric.
The ancient design concepts of Bhutanese architecture that provided the inspiration for the University of Texas at El Paso campus inspired the BOKA Powell design team in creating a housing precinct that fosters a sense of community, security and identity. The “fortress” housing blocks are sited in a way that minimizes disturbance to the terrain, while creating a series of focused courtyards and quiet space for the inhabitants. Adherence to modern accessibility standards was juxtaposed with the need to reflect the fortress nature of the historic model. Ramping and stairways are carefully integrated as recessive features of the building massing.

** On each child's block, I placed information about their first year on each side. On two different sides I put a picture of them on the day they were born and at 1 year old. Then on three separate sides I placed information on their growth, their "firsts" (first smile, first step, etc.) and information about their birth (date, time, weight, etc.) On the last side I placed their name. Since I only have 2 children, the 3rd block is purely decorative.
When I found these illustrations from a 70s comic I wanted to feature them prominently on a project so made some simple cards with them.
I blogged about them here.
The quirky people at NetGifts (NetFlorist’s new gifting site) got together with the creative geniuses from the contemporary Design Team to bring South Africans gift boxes that look as exciting on the outside as the gift that is within.
When choosing the designs we wanted to select something that reflected Design Team’s signature style and was synonymous with South Africa. We decided to stick with the black and white theme that people have come to love and expect from NetFlorist. The new range of packaging is a fresh take that’s totally on trend.
“Towns,” which features the names of South African destinations including Polokwane, Tshwane and Jozi, was created at the time when the Government decided to change the names of many places in South Africa – we like adding a little humour and quirkiness to our work.
