is wandering around Mexico City eating quesadillas whilst I’m at home in Melbourne sick with a cold, watching rain out my window. But this time last year we were wandering around Coyoacán together and I still haven’t gone through all the photos I took whilst we were there!
So please enjoy this little spread of pictures from Coyoacán, Mexico City. The first is the Organillero (organ grinder) that’s a fixture in the main park, he’s still there and took a video of him today, he looks equally unimpressed. The organ has a unique sound and it’s reportedly a dying art, the organs are expensive to fix and it’s harder to make a living playing one. It adds so much vibrancy to the already bustling park life in Mexico, I hope it sticks around a little longer.

I had a great time taking photos at the recent event Power of Community, held at the wonderful little Guildford Public Hall. Wonderful speakers and attendees alike, it was great to hear how they tackle climate concerns and community involvement within their practices. The local CWA tea and lunch was worth the drive alone!

Chasing some dopamine by blasting Robyn’s new album and looking through photos from Mexico last year. The architecture scene there has nailed adaptive reuse and use of local materials and artisans - this is the Museo Textil de Oaxaca by Arquitectos Artesanos. Excellent museum housed in an excellent building, Mexico is the country where I will go out of my way to see every niche museum because they’re always a surprise, and in Oaxaca the pride in their cultural identity is always at the forefront.

Flashback to the best few days at this incredible house in Mexico last year. I’d been dreaming of staying here since seeing it on every architecture and design website over the past 4 years. Designed by and situated in a small village on the edge of a forest outside Mexico City, it was a a perfect few days with friends listening to music, playing cards, and watching the fire from the conversation pit. Some good food and a little mezcal to top it off.

Visiting Biblioteca Vasconcelos was like seeing a Borges story come to life - infinite, and the physically impossible somehow realised. Magic Realism in library form! My camera and main lens were on their last legs (two international trips in 6 months and some decent drops, dust, water), but it made it through the library before dying as we walked through El Chopo punk market outside, on our last day in Mexico City.
Designed by Alberto Kalach and Juan Palomar and opened in 2006, it temporarily closed for a hefty 2 years of defect rectification!
Thanks to our generous guides and
Many more pics to come!

One of my worst AND best habits on long drives is adding in surprise side quests!
Here’s the site of the great flood of 1852 in Gundagai, which wiped out the original town that was built on the flood plain. About a third of the towns population were killed, with many others saved by Wiradjuri men Yarri and Jacky who spent three days in a bark canoe and rowboat rescuing survivors clinging to trees.

Barragan used colour, light, framed views, contraction and expansion for his portals and interstitial spaces. I love the journey it takes you on as you move through spaces, encouraging an emotional response.
