This picture is an exterior view of one of my TAFE projects. We were asked to design a multi storey office building which had to include a small restaurant/cafe, and underground basement parking (both not seen in this image). The program I used to complete the assignment was ArchiCAD v12. I enjoyed working on this project because it was one of the first projects where we had the freedom to come up with our own designs for the building.
ARCHITECTURE - FALLING WATER BY FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT
(image taken from http://history591.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/wright_falling_water.jpg)
When architecture comes to mind, one of the first names that pop up in people’s heads is Frank Lloyd Wright. This image is one of his most recognizable works called ‘Falling Water’. Wright designed this building as a holiday house for his clients the Kaufmann family and was completed in 1939. The house is built over a 30 foot waterfall, one of the reasons why it is internationally renowned, and today labelled as a Historic Landmark.

SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL - COFFS HARBOUR
This photo was taken at a beach at Coffs Harbour at the end of 2009. We were on our way to Queensland, and we decided to take a routine break at this point to have lunch and to have a rest from driving (we had been driving for I think 6 hours – with mandatory breaks after every 2 hours of course!). It was such a beautiful day, the sun was shining brightly, no clouds in the sky (except those far into the horizon), the water was a perfect shade of blue and the sand was white and hot. This photo reminds me a very good time in my life.
