Why are there so many young developers in the U.S.? And why don’t we see more of them in Canada? If you’re out there I’d love to connect. Hit me up. I’ll share anything I know and support however I can. This was definitely my biggest takeaway from @ReconveneLA. Being around so…
My favorite landscape style? A Japanese garden. Every time I see one, I’m reminded how much good landscaping changes everything. It softens a building. It slows people down. It makes you want to stay. Developers more of this please. And cities… enough with the 8-foot sidewalks…
I was born in this house. It was the first home my parents bought in Canada. Before that? A basement suite. So when my mom bought this place, she made sure it had one too. Yes, to help with the mortgage. But also because she wanted people around. Community mattered. I remember…
Spending some time in LA and thinking about how policies like SB9, SB684, and SB1123 are creating new paths for middle housing not just through lot splits or missing units, but also by helping retain existing homes and address larger parcels creatively. It makes me reflect on…
Thank you @moseskagan and @SimranKagan for being such incredible hosts at @ReconveneLA. I didn’t get any photos with people but honestly, that’s exactly what made it special. What stood out for me was people’s why: why are you here? what brings you back? Why do you do what…
When I talk about architecture and design, some folks think I’m suggesting value-engineered stucco boxes. I’m not. This was a project my wife and I designed and built together. It was smart design. • Slightly raised retaining walls doubled as handrails • Laser-cut corten…
This was the first rowhome/townhome/multiplex we built 10 years ago. Long before I knew what “middle housing” was. Long before I understood the movement it would become and what it would come to mean in my life. Now, I’m at @moseskagan’s Reconvene Conference, sharing the…
What looks like a duplex is actually six homes and you’d never know from how it sits on the street. This is quickly becoming one of my favorite housing typologies. It’s a perfect example of the kind of opportunity middle housing creates: subtle, contextual, and quietly doing the…
Excited to be at my first Reconvene and joining @DonovanBuilds & @benjamintink in a breakout who are doing some groundbreaking (painstaking I’m sure a lot of the times) work on figuring out how to unlock middle housing. California has such a huge opportunity with the vast…

Had an incredible afternoon walking South Central LA with @RapStarchitect and Demar from Off Top Design. We talked about the future of this place and more importantly, about how the past and present deserve to be part of that future. Middle housing came up a lot. Because at its…

LA has 29,000 vacant small lots. 4,000 owned by the city. 25,000 privately owned. @UCLA CityLab is about to release in partnership with the city of LA an RFP for the first batch and it could be a its a game changer for middle housing. I’ll be on a webinar aug 22 sharing from…
Hanging out in Los Angeles for a bit. If you know of any folks in the infill or middle housing space let me know! I’d love to connect with you or them
Landscaping should always be a priority. The appearance of the building or the number of families residing there becomes irrelevant. This approach should be made legal and viable everywhere!
