Watcha think?

I realized on the last page that I shouldn't be so open about it. But, I hope that you won't mind being inducted into my informal Advisory by PM Group on restoration and renovation efforts.

The new place is quite habitable now because of a recent major restoration/renovation effort. Lovely, really.

Yes, Ed's new ties kick ass. The unlined Panta is the closest thing that I've handled to the unlined Rubinacci ties that you can see photographed on Tweed in the City. Some will love this; others, not. The lined Panta six-folds are the lightest lined six-folds I've seen.

We're going to concentrate on the landscaping first, I think, although I'm fixated on this idea of an open rooftop living room like in the Neutra/Kaufman house in Palm Springs because of the fantastic views.

The architects who did the restoration and updates are coming up from New York next week to meet with me. I'm really looking forward to hearing what they have in mind and what they had on their wish list.

The house sounds very interesting, and like a fun project to follow. It would be great to be part of the group.

 

[voxsartoria]

The two of you are very kind, so of course.

I can see it already.

We have to rule this out as not period appropriate. Unless we put it on the roof.

I would be interested in following this unless you intend to make Vox's House a regular broadcasted HGTV show

Rule nothing out! I once saw a Moltani custom Wok range in a Marleybone flat. Go deep or go home.

Why not? The more, the merrier.

They are daffy north of Oxford St.

I could be mistaken, but I believe Modernism was a reaction against AGA stoves.

Thank you. I walked softly today to avoid igniting a detonation.

Also: no squeaks.

Well, virtually all archaeal groups as well as the deeply branching bacterial lineages contain a bifunctional fructose 1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) aldolase/phosphatase with both FBP aldolase and FBP phosphatase activity.

Right?
