MegalopolisNow - city talks
By Donato de Vivo: www.megalopolisnow.com

I created this blog to share each other architectural, urban and technological news and thoughts about the new form of city that is developing now: the megalopolis. The future of all us is playing in these urban settings and we must contribute to the debate for a better way of life, more sustainable and beautiful.

Architecture is...
By RGX_MERCADO: I come across very interesting studies and experiments in general context, that can be applied to architecture and design in creative ways.

My objective is to push the boundaries of research and development borrowing from professional field's in and outside of architecture, as well as sharing current research and work.
Infamous Lines - Seminar and Summit
By Annie McCarthy: The technique of drawing is a very distinct architectural element. As Architects, we draw lines for notions of aesthetic, concept, as well as production. Drawing is considered an extension of our thoughts (concept) and vessel to communicate our ideas (technique). Every drawing however has imbedded in it a signature, expression, and authenticity. What is the relationship between lines and our individual design ideologies?

No Master - play on words:

2 No school or teachers but but a peer review process, no masters just students
