Simon Open Door took place over the weekend of April 24th and 25th. small spaces decided to do things a little differently to the other architects (this is a theme you may see on these pages more than once). I decided to bring Mohammed to the mountain (makes sense really) and gave all my consultations at the "client's" houses. This saved them the hassle of having to take photos, do up scaled drawings and generally describe things that are much quicker grasped by standing and looking at them in person. I think the people I saw appreciated the effort and the less vague discussions that resulted. Seeing them in their own habitats meant that the advice given was much more focused and took account of how they were actually using their houses, as opposed to how they would have described it themselves.
