Moonlighting
July 10, 2017Photo Credit: ABC Television |
Moonlighting, or outside professional practice, is prohibited by the firm for which I work. It has never been a problem for me, as I never felt like I didn’t have enough to do in my day job. That is not to say that I have not been asked for help by friends or family. The closest thing I have done to moonlighting is writing about my experiences as an architect, but that is a far cry from providing architectural services.
There are certain liabilities that comes with working for friends or family (not to mention the risk of losing such friends…). I am not insured for such activities – at least that is an excuse I can use that won’t hurt someone’s feelings. I don’t really think I want to work for friends or family. To me, that sounds about as good an idea as loaning your dead-beat uncle some cash. It probably won’t end well, and it will make Thanksgiving dinner really awkward if you expected that money back.
Cue television flashback harp music:
My parents were set to build a house in New Mexico a few years after I graduated from college. I had only seen the land in pictures, and it wasn’t really pretty. It was rocks, sand and scrub. My step father had this grand idea that he wanted a log cabin. In the desert. No amount of logic from a kid in his mid-twenties would sway him. “Where are you gonna get the trees, Al?” “How’s that log cabin gonna do in 120 degree heat? – I don’t care if it is a dry heat, that’s actually worse!”
This is either a view from the Viking Spacecraft or a view of my mother’s lawn. (Photo credit: NASA) |
This is an actual view of my mother’s home. The amount of green is deceptive from space. (Photo Credit: Google Earth) |
So they were convinced. Log cabins were not the way to go. Guess what? Adobe! Well, stucco anyway, was the exterior choice they made. Flat roof. Spanish colonial sensibilities. All this they thought they came up with themselves. Not from the kid with a minor in architectural history. Not from the kid who was working on a job in Phoenix around that time.
Oh well, they got their house, and it was appropriate to the climate and context. I am sure Thanksgiving dinner will still be awkward, just for different reasons.

My Mentor
June 8, 2017Gregg Scott, FAIA, my mentor. |
Many of my colleagues from school have job hopped a half dozen times or more. The reason I never moved on again is innately related to the mentor I landed with at my current firm. I wrote another post about how much I learned driving him around to meetings in my early years. I didn’t just drive him. I was a participant in the meetings to which we were traveling, but I learned a lot about the profession and leadership while he worked in the passenger seat, engaged in phone calls for at least 75% of our travel time.
Gregg’s goals in mentorship: Education and Having Fun! |
Gregg can poke fun at himself, too. His pants can ride up. |

Advice From My Mentor
A Dictator of the Worst Kind
May 17, 2017The height of 1990’s technology. It’s kind of like the thing Star Lord has in Guardians of the Galaxy, only smaller. |
The best seller’s list… |
Changes
April 10, 2017A casual dining option ‘Before’ |
The same casual dining option ‘After’ |
The above Cafe was renovated in the same footprint to update it. We were blessed with high ceilings and an abundance of natural light. Not only were the aesthetics changed, but the options and services were as well. That takes a commitment from the operator to invest in both buildings and staff.
Many people think of this… |
…or this. Sewing must be the activity of the day, right? |
Activities…before. In the past we designed these suffleboard courts in VCT, yes. |
Activities…after. |
Outdoor livin’…before. Rocker upon rocker. |
Outdoor livin’…after. Active outdoor amenities. Bocce, outdoor kitchen… |
Roof top living amenities. |
And don’t think that changes are limited to amenities. Communities cater to clients like they have never before. You have dogs? We have a dog park. You like to garden? We have a place for you to do that, too. You want to customize your kitchen? Sure! You like to live in the buff? We got that, err, covered? Or is the right term uncovered?
The large glazed area in the photo center is the master shower. |
View from the shower. |
That’s right. This unit was custom made apartment for folks who wanted virtually no walls or doors within their unit. The place was decked out with four electric fireplaces and four ceiling fans…and a see-through shower.
I am guessing the next folks to move in here may not like the layout, so certainly, I see change in the future.

The Building "Doctor"
March 30, 2017I am not a doctor – I think that much is clear. I don’t even play one on TV.
I do have a bag in my car that I call my “doctor bag”. Primarily because of it’s size and the fact that it contains tools for when I make house calls on buildings. I suppose I could just call it a tool bag, but it doesn’t have the same zing.
I developed the kit over the years because I am called on to survey existing buildings quite often. In the Senior Living sector, we often add on to existing buildings and sometimes re-purpose them, which requires us to see what we’re working with. Other times, there is a code infraction, and we need to see how to fix it. I keep this bag in my car at all times. It is pretty compact so it doesn’t take up too much room. It is highly portable, which is important. And it contains what I have found to be some essential items.
This is my bag. The hard hat is there for scale, but it rides in the car with me all the time too. |
So that is the size of it. I could maybe get one pair of shoes in there, but it indeed holds almost anything I might need when assessing a building.
OSHA, OSHA, OSHA.
1. So in the old days, we could show up on active job sites and no one cared if we architects had any protection or not. Well not today. So along with my hard hat, I need a high visibility vest unless I want to be yelled at by the Super.
#1 – Yellow is my color, no? |
2. Protect your eyes. Whether an active job site or not, I want to keep the junk out of my eyes. I have been in my share of attic where I can see the fiberglass floating around and above enough ceilings, where pieces of the tiles fall all over my head.
#2 – These bad boys fit over my regular glasses, so my eyes are safe PLUS I can see! |
3. Protect your lungs. For the same reason I want glasses, I sometimes need a mask. We keep them around the office because building buildings can be dusty or worse.
4. Protect your ears. Building buildings is often noisy. too.
#3 – Disposable breathing mask and #4 – ear protection. |
5. Protect your hands. I have to climb into attics far more than I ever dreamed. Have you ever spent a lot of time handling old fire protection treated lumber? I have.
#5A – Heavy gloves protect from splinters and undesirable materials. |
#5B – Vinyl gloves add no weight or bulk to my kit, so I threw a pair in, just in case. |
Okay, so all I have done so far is protect myself from the building. What’s up with that? What do I use to actually evaluate a building?
6. Light. I sometimes carry other sources of light, but this one has a hook and a magnet so it can sometimes be set up so I can go hands free to make notes or sketches. There is a band of tape over the battery case because I have actually dropped it and lost the batteries in blown in fiberglass insulation in a roof. Trust me. You do not want that to happen.
#6 – This thing was so cheap, but oh, so worth it. |
7. So…this next one is self-explanatory.
#7 – Take extra batteries for all devices. |
8. I just got this head lamp to augment number 6.
#8 – Additional light is always good. |
9. Measure twice, climb into the attic only once.
#9 – Old reliable, analogue measuring device. |
10. I said measure twice… Sometimes, in an attic, you literally can’t get to where you want to measure. So a laser measuring device can save many scraped shins. Full disclosure, I don’t keep this in the car, I wouldn’t want it to get stolen or expose it to the hot and cold.
#10 – Such a time saver. |
11. That’s not a knife… Yes it is. A small Swiss Army pocket knife can be the ultimate multi-tasker. It can scrape off paint or gunk off of something you need to read. It can see how soft a timber beam is. It can even open a beverage at the end of the day…
#11 – Just don’t try to take it on an airplane… |
12. Electrical tape.See #6. I wish I had this tape when I dropped and broke the back of my flashlight.
#12 – Can also be used to mark things and not damage them. |
13. Seriously, a selfie stick? Yes. I just got this one. See ‘Door Labels And Where to Find Them’ for why. Sometimes you need a picture of something you can’t see from where your eyes are. I can reach the top of a 6′-8″ door, and maybe a 7′-0″ door. But not an 8′-0″ door, Not without a ladder. And a ladder doesn’t fit in my bag.
#13 – I hope to test this out soon. I can imagine there will be other reasons besides door labels that I would find this useful. |
14. My phone (not pictured). I didn’t take a picture of it because that is what I use to take pictures.
15. 360 degree camera. These are great to get all the walls, floors and ceilings of the space in one shot. You can view the photos in a proprietary viewer, and it really does save time.
#15 – This doesn’t stay in the bag all the time either. It, like the lase, is shared company wide. |
16. Notebook and many colors of pens.
#16 – And be sure to wear pants and shirts with lots of pockets… |
So that is my doctor bag. Maybe this will give you an idea of what to have on hand on your next survey.
House or Home?
March 6, 2017A Cruciform Church. Early hospitals took their shapes from churches. Thus, so did the early nursing home. |
Beddington Corner Hospital. (source: historic-hospitals.com ) The economy is easy to see. The result is not necessarily a religious experience. |
Mennonite Home Exterior – Before |
Mennonite Home Exterior – After (Obviously). The addition to the right created a one-story, human scale. |
Corridor – Before. Hard and highly reflective surfaces are not atypical in vintage nursing homes. |
Corridor Concept Sketch |
Corridor – After. Sometimes all you have to work with are finishes and lighting. |
Dining Room – Before. No connection to the outside or the community at large. |
Dining Room – After. Here we had the opportunity to add skylights to add natural daylight. |
A Double Room – Before. Only the thin curtain between you and a neighbor. |
A Double Room – After. There is still a curtain, but the interior window provides a more substantial barrier. FYI: the window wall is not a full height wall so as to not trigger sprinkler revisions. |
ICC used this 20 year old project of RLPS’ to illustrate a brand new concept in the 2015 IBC. |
While many may not consider what our office does as “residential”, I would argue that it is extremely important to our end users in the buildings we design that the spaces, “Look like, act like, feel like home.” This quote is attributed to one of our clients, who had the vision to create the first freestanding Hospice facility in Pennsylvania. That’s another topic in itself.

Code Minute with the Yeoman – 001 Doors
January 13, 2017This is not the old Door to whom I am referring. |
On these doors, you can see the labels on both sides on the hinge rail where we would expect to find them. |
No style points but I can read that this door is a 20 minute fire door. |
Here is a door that probably did have a label on it, based on the rectangular surface marking. |
And here’s a bonus… |
Gingerbread 2016
December 12, 2016A lot of people spent a lot of time on the display. |
This year, the idea was to do a simple streetscape in the city, 3 story townhouses in an ‘L’ shape. Sounds good, right? Until the scale of the display doubles from 3/8” = 1’-0” to 3/4” where the size of a 6 foot tall person in the display grew from just over 2 inches to 4 1/2”. For someone who makes a lot of the people for the display, this was a big deal. Normally we can reuse a lot of the people from year to year. A Santa from last year is just as good as a new Santa. But not this year. All the people to populate the display had to be made from scratch and twice as large.
The concept photo (credit:BRENDAN MCDERMID/REUTERS) |
One way to enliven the Underground was to fill it with dozens of Santas. To be clear, the intent was to have a subway station stop with all the department store Santas getting off work and on their way home to their own families. So I thought that several of us could work on doing a subway station, since that fit well with the Underground theme and as part of it, I could make a lot of the Santas to fill the platform.
Step One: Make Fondant Santas. |
Step Two: Make more Santas. |
Starting the Subway car and platform. |
The completed platform. |
Santas headed home. If you look really hard, you’ll see Where’s Waldo. |
Simple, huh? |
We thought this looked like the clock tower from Back to the Future, so we made Doc Brown & the DeLorean. |
No Display is complete without a dragon! |
The movie theater has a working tablet showing the Mickey Mouse movie on the inside. |
If you’re interested in the whole process of the Display, start to finish, I wrote a series of posts describing it starting here: Gingerbread 2013: Part one
The Reluctant Code Guru – Revisited.
November 14, 2016The topic is “Then and Now: How my career path evolved since graduation”.
When I was hired here at RLPS a mere 20 years ago, my position was to assist one of the partners, Gregg Scott, on his particular projects. His position included leading projects as partner-in-charge for several clients, but he was/is also the main business development person for the firm, doing interviews for more work, lecturing at conferences and keeping clients happy and coming back. As opposed to developing the same strengths Gregg had by the bushel: as his underling, my job evolved into a role that augmented the skills Gregg didn’t have time for. I became a very young project manager/project architect on day one.
On my first day on the job with him, he told me we were running up to visit three projects in Northeastern PA, and to “wear a blazer”. Each of the projects was in a different state of completeness – one in early design, one in construction, and one post construction. After a couple of months and a few meetings with these Clients, Gregg eventually left me on my own, without the life vest of having him attend all the meetings with me. Gregg was out of town very often, so in place of his direct guidance back at the office, he encouraged me to utilize the office resources, which included not only code and technical books, but the people in our office who had the knowledge to help me. I had only been in the field nine months prior to starting with RLPS, I had very little experience with Codes, especially in the Department of Health arena.
Fast forward to 2014 and my annual review with the Partnership at the firm…this review is an opportunity to discuss how things are going and perhaps how things in the office can improve. All suggestions are considered (I was the one to suggest sparkling water to be added as an option to the soda fridge – score!). We had been operating without the benefit of Paul’s guidance for a few years at this point, so I happened to mention that, based on the upswing in new projects at that time; a lot of designs were progressing without a seasoned project architect on board to review for fundamental code analysis. It is always better to head off an issue early, I said, because I had been on the receiving end of some very difficult positions once the project got into Design Development with me at the helm. Some examples: bathrooms or kitchens far too small to be accessible, fire walls separating buildings that would be extremely hard to build or would require rated adjacent windows, occupant loads too large not to be separated or needed additional exits – just to name a few. It would be great, I said, if someone could look at these plans before we have the Owners super excited about a building that will be too difficult to build without various changes.
Some of the literature at my desk. |
The Matrix – Isn’t this how everyone sees buildings? I see clearances and ratings as readily as doors and windows. |
Read, interpret and retain, right? |
