The Coolease scheme is one of the first of its kind in Africa, and will enable suppliers and consumers of air conditioning and refrigerations products to transition to the latest technology without an upfront investment.

Forum Groningen is a new multifunctional building in the center of Groningen in the Netherlands, a cultural ‘department store’ filled with books and images, that offers exhibition spaces, movie halls, assembly rooms, restaurants. The Forum aspires to become a platform for interaction and debate, a ‘living room’ for the city. Forum Groningen is a new type of public space where the traditional borders between these institutes will dissolve. Information will be presented thematically in a way that transcends the different media. The building is designed as single clear volume to express the desire for synergy, to strengthen the shared ambition to combine different facilities into one new compound. A series of careful cuts nails the building on its site and generates a multitude of different appearances.
Forum Groningen features an exceptional central space, an innovative atrium that with its horizontal ‘tentacles’ forms the pumping heart of the venue. The void works as a spatial interface that binds all functions, movie theatre, book collection, expo, auditorium, and as such hopes to catalyze the exchange of knowledge and ideas. A series of stacked ‘squares’ emerges that can be experienced as the continuation of the network of open spaces in the city of Groningen. The vertical squares are publicly accessible and provide entry to the ticketable activities. The specific layout offers continuously changing perspectives on the surrounding city and culminates in the roof terrace, a viewing platform and outdoor theater. Forum Groningen has been engineered “to accommodate finding not searching”. The design stimulates exploration. It hopes to catalyze the desire to wander, to ‘browse’ endlessly through a staggering interior landscape.
...in Ealing, London, a new building for the International Presbyterian Church (IPC). Their scheme retains an existing Grade ll listed chapel – originally built as an annex to the previously adjacent St Helena’s Home for ‘fallen women’ – and encloses it within a larger scheme. This new design includes an entrance hall, administrative and meeting spaces, and a worship space for up to 200 people. They are anticipating to start construction in the summer of 2013. More images and architects’ description after the break.
Piercy&Company have been working on the designs since July 2011, with a brief to create a contemporary building, located at the centre of the IPC’s own community, to serve the Church’s growing work and congregation. The original chapel is enfolded and showcased within the new building, its exterior walls transformed into a rustic interior object, unexpectedly encountered when moving between the entrance hall and the new worship space. A thin offset of roof level glazing connects the chapel with the new building, allowing natural light to penetrate the original leaded glass and serving to differentiate the old from the new.

Supermodels - an exhibition of super architectural models by the Piercy&Co studio - opens 25 November at Regent Quarter, Kings Cross. Piercy&Co will install eight moving and animated models across the eerie setting of an empty central London building site. Supermodels represents the distillation of 20 years of the studio’s design thinking around the importance of the haptic, sensorial and experiential in architecture.
The mechanical automata, projection mapping, sound, light and scent employed by Piercy&Co in Supermodels are not the everyday techniques and products of an architectural project. Rather, they are a creative body of work and an experiment in how far the model can be pushed as a tool for communicating architectural ideas. The models were made over a five year period in Piercy&Co's London studio by the architectural team, between and around projects.
Each super model is based on a building by Piercy&Co - some built, some unbuilt - and abstracted to capture the kernel of the idea behind the building. The ‘coming alive’ of the models through film, sound and movement plays into the mysterious allure of objects with a miniature life of their own - the dolls house, the cuckoo clock, the model railway. The evocation of delight is intentionally egalitarian - an exploration of a mode of architectural communication that is ageless and universal. Supermodels seek to reconnect digital and physical worlds through a childlike sense of wonder and unfiltered joy.

The RISE project aims to increase economic resilience and employment opportunities for vulnerable groups in Morocco and Tunisia by improving institutional, technical, social and economic conditions for innovative entrepreneurial activity, inclusive growth and job creation. It will provide tailored employment-related capacity development and entrepreneurial programmes, promote networks and dialogue among actors of the business ecosystem, support entrepreneurial activity and build capacities of MSMEs to enable income generation and job creation.
Micro-, small- and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) and social enterprises (SEs) play a vital role in local-level economic development, accounting for a significant share of GDP and being the main contributors to the creation of jobs and wealth, the generation of income and alleviation of poverty. They are also central to efforts to achieve more inclusive growth and sustainable employment.
Challenges to starting and maintaining a business include complicated and expensive legal and administrative requirements, lack of access to finance and effective support, and more recently issues caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The project will also address barriers to women’s employment and tailor targeting criteria to ensure 50% of beneficiaries are women. The design of activities and feedback will ensure the voices of women, young people and minorities such as refugees, displaced and disabled people are included.
The new colour scheme looks nice, but it is a pain to photograph against a bright sky, which is presumably what it's meant to do!
In the UK we have one of finest open garden schemes in the world.
At a QNI council meeting in 1926, council member Miss Elsie Wagg came up with the idea of raising money for district nursing through the nation's obsession with gardening. A year later the National Garden Scheme—affectionately known as the NGS—was founded and garden owners were asked to open their gardens for 'a shilling a head'. In 1927 the NGS got itself formally under way and it has raised tens of millions of pounds for many good causes.

Because of Covid-19 the scheme had to be suspended in 2020. However in 2021 it got back on track. The entry fee these days averages around £5 per person.
For the first time since 2019 we managed to find a garden that appealed to myself and my wife. The photographs in this album were taken in the London suburb of Harrow. Famous for its school—though that is over on Harrow-on-the-HIll, so a few miles away—we found this garden an absolute delight!
I’ve named it ‘Paradise Found’. One of the UK’s finest garden presenters, Alan Titchmarsh, says that owners of small gardens shouldn’t be afraid of bold planting with large trees and shrubs. And this garden demonstrates that, if you are brave enough, it can turn any garden into a paradise.
Brenda, the owner of the garden, moved to the house in 1994, but she didn’t really get started on the design until the turn of the 21st century.
Measuring thirty five metres long and about five or six metres wide, you meander through what I can only describe as a tropical oasis. Lots of varieties of flowers, mainly perennials with a mixture of grasses, flowers, palms, and other herbaceous shrubs.
With cleverly thought out use of ornaments, tables, chairs, benches and other objet d’art, it gives a great deal of pleasure to the eye! Ultimately it’s a calming garden. The owner has installed a lovely outdoor room that can be used throughout all of the seasons. It’s a quiet tranquil space that allows privacy and views of the garden whilst relaxing, either reading a book or magazine, or listening to the battery driven digital radio.
Further on down the garden walk she has a beautiful aviary full of exotic birds. And the sound of the birds was enchanting!
The photographs, I hope, will give the viewer some idea of the garden’s beauty. And I hope you enjoy the pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them.

Visiting N's brother in his new house was an excellent excuse to visit his local library.
And to try out their 'Libraries Extra' scheme (We're open when we're closed). I registered for a card in the main library in Hove, then went to find this one. There was one other local reader choosing books - wish I had this sort of option at home!
