The inevitable issue with taking a break, even for a couple of weeks, from blogging, is that the flows of project ideas and concepts wait for no one and begin to pile up in a somewhat annoying fashion… so I have a massive backlog of projects to show off… and as it’s late – a quick peek at some new ones before I get far into the projects. And as there seems to be a predominance of quick visual blogs popping up – I’m hoping to get some good dialogue and information going about both the visual and the realized.

For the (Veg.itecture in Visual Assessment) VIVA – GRAFT Architects and the “ao project” is a fantastic example of how wild the concept of Veg.itecture has come (via The Design Blog – via Designboom for much more). Or on another hand, it’s an example of what happens to your glassy modern box if it gets lost in the back of the fridge for a month or so.

And for the (Veg.itecture in Action) VIA we have the long-awaited Vancouver Convention Center (or Centre, depending on your location) – featuring the largest green roof in Canada… more on this one soon for sure.
