link refresh

Inspired by a post I read elsewhere, I finally updated my blogroll and links on the sidebar. I'm inspired to update this site by the work my friends do online, and my 'friends' list needed to reflect that.

Links were updated to more current urls and friends who started blogging more recently were added. I think only one site was removed (rest in peace shamby productions).

m.ammoth's best architecture of the decade

Just when I thought the "Best (blank) of 2009/decade" lists were over and finished, mammoth writes an amazing post on the best architecture of the 2000's.

It avoids obvious spectacle architecture and uses a broad definition of the term. The result is a list that truly reflects, through a positive lens, the spirit of the decade. The authors are genuinely excited about the work done over the previous ten years and see much to look forward to, avoiding the usual gloom employed when writing on the last decade.

There's a lot to like, and I especially enjoyed their thinking on the housing development at Quinta Monroy, Chile, pictured above, which encourages creative natural expansion by homeowners.
