Book review: The Three Little Pigs, An Architectural Tale by Steven Guarnaccia transforms the classic story with such ease it makes us ask why we didn’t think of it first.

Favourite Australian architects: this is where our interest in @jamesrussell__ started. Bisley Place House is an amazing intervention within an otherwise commonplace Brisbane street. It achieves transparency, openness and theatre and addresses a remarkably tight budget. Brisbane, 2012.

Designing all the time for the variable weather of Melbourne makes us dream of getting a chance one day to design for the tropics. Christian Street House, Brisbane 2014.
