Favorite Buildings/ Structures Visited - Nizwa Dam, Oman
these pictures evoke a feeling of such unbearable loneliness. i never liked dams. they've always scared me in both a meta-and regularly physical way. as if as i child i was left by my parents at a dam, all alone. *shudder*
i forgot all about this blog. i don't even remember if i ever knew it existed. and i'm very flattered that you mentioned me in the above post *applause* oh and that i inspired you.
This blog is maintained and predominantly written by Dr. Thomas Modeen, partner of Architects Independent, which he founded with his wife Maysaa Al-Mumin in Kuwait in the Fall of 2008. The practice also has a base, and its origins, in London, where it's known as Independent Architects, which is headed by Paul Brady and Eng Ling Ho. The blog aims to provide a personalized outline of all our practice and discipline related escapades.
ArchitectsIndependent/ Independent Architects are a research based architecture and design practice that retains a equal and collaborative footing within both practice and academia, with strong links to various academic and research facilities around the world. Our current interest involve the use of various computing based design methods and tools in the realization of physical builds (using both subtractive and additive CAD-CAM methods).

Hi again Ghadah,
Thank you for doing inspiring posts..!!!
I like these photos - there's something in their arid ascetic aesthetic which reminds me a bit of Finland, in the winter - go figure...
