Imagine the potential if we were to reconsider our street corners.

Until now, many of our roadside intersections have been heavily focused on vehicular use, posing risks for pedestrians when crossing the road.

It's time to change direction and reenvision these spaces to create a brighter, safer, and more inclusive urban landscape.

🚀 By redesigning our street corners, we can enjoy numerous benefits:

■ Ample space for pedestrians to walk freely and comfortably 🚶‍♂️🚶‍♀️
■ Reduced crossing distances and waiting times ⏳🚸
■ Infusion of greenery to add shade to our bustling cityscapes 🌿🌇
■ Safer streets where everyone can navigate with confidence 🚦👪
■ Beautiful street corners that enhance the aesthetic charm of our cities 🌈🏙️

💡 One inspiring example comes from PGAA Creative Design in Manila, the Philippines. 🇵🇭 Their innovative approach to street corner redesign illustrates precisely what's possible when we prioritise pedestrians and community safety. 👏

In the realm of architectural preservation, the restoration of old brick structures stands as a testament to our rich history and cultural heritage. However, when it comes to cleaning and rejuvenating these beloved relics, one must tread carefully to avoid inadvertently causing irreversible damage.
Sandblasting, often perceived as a quick and efficient solution, harbours hidden dangers that can compromise the structural integrity and aesthetic authenticity of historic bricks. In this article, we explore the hazards associated with sandblasting old bricks and highlight the importance of employing alternative preservation methods to ensure the longevity of these architectural gems.
By understanding the risks and adopting appropriate restoration approaches, we can safeguard the charm and legacy of these venerable structures for generations to come.

COMPATIBILITY IS KEY! 🔑
It is important to consider the compatibility of different materials, especially when combining porous and non-porous materials. Porous materials have tiny interconnected pores that allow for water and air transfer, while non-porous materials are generally impermeable to water and air. It's best to avoid combining materials with vastly different porosities to prevent problems with moisture and air infiltration.
When using porous and non-porous materials together, it's crucial to properly seal the joint between them to prevent water and air from penetrating the porous material. This can be achieved with sealants or specialised products.
For example, the type and porosity of render used in a building also affects its ability to "breathe." Breathable paints allow moisture v***r to pass through, preventing moisture buildup and mold growth on porous surfaces like brick, stucco, and natural stone. Non-breathable paints, on the other hand, are best used on non-porous surfaces like metal or plastic. Using non-breathable paints on porous materials can cause moisture infiltration and damage. Therefore, choosing the appropriate type of paint for the specific application and material is crucial.
In summary, selecting and installing compatible materials and render types is crucial for long-term durability and performance of existing buildings.

He said "Let the experienced men deal with it, darling," a phrase she had heard too often. Instead of confrontation, she showed compassion by listening, acknowledging his expertise and then communicating her own.
