The loft extension will be a zinc roof cover with a 2 windows and a roof light to allow natural light into the central part of the house. The metal colour of the zinc will match the colour of the window frames, for an integrated aesthetic. The proposal will also remodel an extent of the interiors but this interior work will not require planning. The kitchen design will elongate the kitchen and a sliding fire door will be created in the design to create a protected stair. The living room will
include a new fire door to form a protected stair as well.
The rest of the house include renovations to ensuite bathroom, a larger closet, children's bedrooms and bathroom extension.
Honestly, it was journey and a good lessons learned. Some lessons include
1. Making 100% sure before the contractor is hired that they will comply and sign a contract with the client. Here they did an agreement and this is where everything goes wrong, including massive changes of the design, without my knowledge. Many rooms as not as I designed them.
2. Even without a contract to contract adminstrator, I should have been on site every week, as the stair design was completely messed up by the contractor, even though the drawings show something aligned. Samples of every material should have been taken before being applied on the walls, ceilings etc. The children's room was designed without wood, for example.
3. Looking at details such as unaligned downlights and light in the complete different location, not as per drawings at hand.
4. Using a closet and kitchen supplier right away and just laying out the idea, which I mostly did.
5. Getting the client's full trust in designing items as we went through the architectural stages, rather than designing later on with the contractor.
A dramatic departure from my norm, imagine I'm inside this car(toon), behind the tinted glass.
I found a '56 Chevy toy model at my local thrift store over the weekend, and just felt inspired to make a vintage/classic Hot Rod cartoon typical of the late 60's early 70's with a massively over sized engine and ridiculously proportioned tires. I think I've succeeded and am rather pleased with the outcome.
I tried to make a giant-sized Perry sticking out of the roof like was sometimes done in these cartoons, but I wasn't happy with the way that was going, so you just have to use your imagination if you want to see me this week.

One AB800 camera right pointed at the ceiling for even downlighting, plus a white bounce card just to the front-right of the model.
One Vivitar 285 HV, left-front of model also shot into a bounce card.

After shooting Cindy (#10), I wanted to try something different with the light. I asked emilie to look up into the corner to try and get some light into her eyes, and create something a little more unusual. Originally from Lyon, Emilie had lived a long time in Camden, and was just returning to see her friend but both were disappointed how touristy it had become. I found it a little ironic that I had come to Camden for the Camden style, and ended up finding two French girls that exemplified the Camden I'd come looking for. Time to get a reflector... I cant do all these portraits a weird angles...

Birth of a dynasty
THE $110 million redevelopment of the former Village City Centre complex into an Asian dining hub has signed Shanghai's Dynasty for a 600-seat restaurant.
The press release touts the signing of Dynasty, a Cantonese and dim sum specialist based at Shanghai's Renaissance Yangtze Hotel, as a coup for the LAS Group's commercial redevelopment of the Bourke Street site, which backs on to Chinatown.
Dynasty joins the 120-seat Bund, which will also boast two five-tonne shark tanks, and the expansion of former lord mayor John So's Dragon Boat, which is taking over two floors and will have a large open-air balcony. All going to plan, most of the complex will open by mid-month and Dynasty just before Christmas.
- Dynasty (Man Fu Lou), Renaissance Yangtze Shanghai Hotel - Frommer's Long regarded as one of Shanghai's top Cantonese restaurants, Dynasty boasts the same chefs (many from Hong Kong) who routinely cater dinners for visiting heads of state at special banquets and luncheons.

Season's Greetings, one and all!
Lots of lighting, three funky Christmas trees and a fluffy Penguin. :-)
Lighting
Indoors:
8 x 50W Tungsten downlights
1 x 4W LED spot (on shelving, camera-right)
5 x strings of LED lights (one on each tree, one on the shelving, one at top of centre doors)
2 x CFL fittings (one out of shot camera-left)
Outdoors:
2 x CFL bulkhead fittings with three gels in each
1 x LED light string
What might look vaguely like moonlight is not, but is provided by three radio-triggered Vivitar 283 hotshoe flashes, as follows:
One high up camera-left on stand by camera (lighting whole scene)
One high camera-right just out of frame indoors through upstairs window (lighting roof and camera-left part of scene)
One high camera-right indoors through upstairs window, pretty much in line with the ridge of the roof. This lights the roof only, and is at just the right angle to give the blue reflection from the roof tiles in the top right corner of the frame.
White balance set to tungsten to match indoor lighting. Flashes bare (no gels), appear blue due to tungsten WB set in camera.

The Oxford Marble Fireplace sent in by Lee Colebrooke shown in Spanish Blanco Micro, Downlights and a polished Granite hearth.
the light, a single downlight in a tiny room, a closet really, is really interesting to photograph. I was supposed to be getting dressed and going home, but I had to play first.
"We couldn't be more happier with our Lynford Fireplace. From start to finish Mick was a pleasure to deal with , from giving us advice or sending samples of Marble, nothing was too much trouble, he even managed to get us our new gas fire at a cheaper price than I could find. I would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Mick Stanford and his company Designer Fireplaces to anyone looking for Great fireplaces , at great prices, from a great company."

The MR16 pins became loose and no longer make a good contact with the socket. I show the insert with a small tape measure for size comparison.

New colour-changing LED downlights installed on the Hotwalls at the entrance to Portsmouth Harbour.
Quite a tricky shot to make as you need to wait 'til twilight for the lights to come on and show up but they cycle through their colour changes quite swiftly so it's not possible to use too long an exposure. Also you have to be quick to reframe the next shot or risk missing the next colour in the cycle as the hues progress from light to light along the wall.
Fortuitously the Spinnaker Tower's lights were also colour changing so I waited for them to cycle on to yellow so as to break up the blue of the sky.

A well deserved rest, after a long drive to Montreal, parking was a nightmare. A pint of local beer in a blues bar was very welcome and the glass had to double as a camera stand for this shot.

Reflection of the twilight sky in the west after the sun has set, as seen on the large glass window of the Lily Lounge on Morphett Street, Adelaide. I like this window as the surrounding bricks on the facade are painted an silvery metallic colour. BTW those are not 2 flying saucers in the sky, but the downlights in the ceiling inside. You can also see some scratches in the glass on the outside.

Seen on its usual X85 Machynlleth Newtown run.This is one of those with extra features with LED lights and semi coach interior with red downlights under the seats.Quite a pleasant vehicle to drive and travel in.
Architect: Alvar Aalto (1957)
Location: Bazoches-sur-Guyonne
Aalto designed everything in this room except the cabinet at the opposite end, which was added after Carré's death by his widow, Olga. These light fixtures were designed specifically for this space to both light the artwork on the wall and provide downlight for dining.
Louis Carré (1897-1977) was an important French art dealer and gallery owner whose was artists included Fernand Leger and Pablo Picasso. Louis Carré commissioned the house from Alvar Aalto in 1956 as both his private residence and an art gallery, and he and his wife moved there in 1959. The house became a center of French cultural activity throughout the 60s, hosting glamorous parties with the artistic elite. Jean Monnet, the father of the European Union, was his close friend and lived next door.
The house is beautifully designed, but it's also remarkable in that it has remained in its original state, all the way down to the furniture, clothes in the closets, and personal possessions of the original owners. After Carré's death, his widow continued to live there and didn't touch any of her husband's possessions. When she died, the house went to the Alvar Aalto foundation.
Despite being close to Paris, the house is very much in the countryside, surrounded by quaint, medieval villages.
