		<title>Terminalator 3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After a brief weather delay in Orange County (which roughly translates to there being a cloud in the otherwise endlessly blue sky), we squared off against the newly opened John Wayne Airport Terminal C.

As the existing terminals, designed by Gensler in 1990&#8217;s, were exceeding capacity, the firm was again commissioned to create an addition in [...]]]></description>

		<title>Stairway to Heaven</title>
		<description><![CDATA[An unseasonal storm front crossing through Southern California had delayed my showdown with John Wayne, so with a few hours to fill I turned off the Interstate in Garden Grove to visit the famed Crystal Cathedral and Tower of Hope. I&#8217;d driven past them many times en route to other jobs and despite the rain, was [...]]]></description>

		<title>Head for Business</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Most weekends, London’s financial district resembles a kind a Ghost Town, so when walking through the area early Sunday morning, it was no surprise to engage the apparition of a headless stockbroker.

		<title>Theoretically Speaking</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In their December 2011 issue, San Francisco Magazine ran a ten page profile on the work of our client Ogrydziak Prillinger Architects. The article included images of the much awarded Gallery House, honighaus, 100foot House and Sonoma Skyspace projects.

		<title>Golf Club</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While shooting a series of developments in Dongguan City, I kept seeing this poster for VW Golf&#8217;s. When the opportunity arose I couldn&#8217;t help but offer some practical advice to the wayward photographer in the jacket. Seems he couldn&#8217;t focus accurately with the sunglasses on.

At least he looked cool.
I was explaining the annoying stereotyping of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Real Nice</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When it opened in 2005, Dongguan&#8217;s New South China Mall was the biggest shopping mall in the world.  Seven years later it still holds that title though is probably a contender for the loneliest place on Earth as well. In the massive 7.1 million sq ft of lettable space there are slots for 1,500 stores. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Mist Connection</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Despite my general distrust of advance meteorological knowledge, the forecast low cloud for Shanghai was indeed coming true. Still, it made for some impressive views from the hotel room while waiting for more favorable conditions. Here, the Jin Mao Building and Shanghai World Financial Center dance majestically in and out of the passing clouds.

		<title>Skin Care</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In Shanghai, the taller towers of Pudong are quickly stacking up to form canyons of the once empty boulevards. Narrowing down one’s viewpoint provides some interesting comparisons in the skin details employed by different firms.

		<title>Face for Radio</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Most times, when embroiled in a shoot in a far flung location, one of the only connections to the goings on of the outside world arrives in the form of BBC World News. There&#8217;s a certain sense of calm continuity in the presentation that makes a welcome change from the dramatic histrionics of the American [...]]]></description>

		<title>Big Red (Taxi)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[“They paved paradise and put up a parking lot” sang the prescient Joni Mitchell in 1970.
Much of the same has been happening in the rapid transformation of Asian cities such as Beijing. What were once smaller clusters of multi-dwelling residential blocks have been razed to make way for exclusive and expensive condominiums.

Until relatively recently, with [...]]]></description>
