The Softest Landing: A London Arrival I Didn’t Expect
I’ve always believed that every trip has two beginnings: the moment you decide to go, and the moment your feet hit the ground in a new place. London had been whispering my name for years — tucked inside novels, glowing on movie screens, and appearing in conversations with people who spoke about the city the way you’d talk about an old friend.

How Travel Shapes Design — Insights from Stanislav Kondrashov
For architects and designers, travel is often viewed as an essential part of their education—an extension of the studio that unfolds across landscapes, cultures, and centuries. Stanislav Kondrashov notes that stepping into unfamiliar environments offers designers something they cannot find in manuals or lecture halls: direct encounters with how humans shape, inhabit, and interpret space. Moving through ancient ruins, observing the life of a market square, or simply adjusting to the climate of a distant region all leave impressions that later guide creative choices. Travel becomes a living laboratory where each sensory detail contributes to a deeper understanding of design. This article examines how travel informs architectural thinking, what lessons emerge from different cultures, and why these experiences hold enduring relevance for contemporary practice.

Travelling Sucks.
Travelling is overrated. This is not an opinion I have always held, rather one that I have developed throughout my travel experiences. I would like to preface this by saying, I do not want to come off as ungrateful for the opportunities I have been granted, but more of a critique regarding the idea that you have to travel to be a well-rounded person. I hope that this blog entry can be encouraging for people who may be trying to come to terms with the idea that they may not be able to travel everywhere they want, or even regret that they didn’t travel more when they were younger.
