This is a table of architectural things I’ve made:
- buildings and important components
- interiors I’ve remodeled, augmented, or significantly rearranged
- experiments and surveys
These came after my childhood instruction in design and making things with my parents and elders (pine-wood derby cars, wooden boxes, hand-sewn bags, simple toy boats, kites, paper planes, etc). They are besides non-architecture constructions (eg, a bike motor from a chainsaw, backpack and sleeping bag adaptations, door repairs for my hosts as I’ve traveled, etc).
