One of New Zealand's greatest architects has died. Farewell and thank you, Sir Miles Warren (10 May 1929 - 9 August 2022). Such a pleasure to work in a team with Miles to campaign to keep the Christchurch Town Hall after the earthquakes.

“In the face of mass apathy about the impending climate crisis, a flow of magical thinking has seemed to congeal around the speciously desperate idea that somehow the forests can save us.”.
Essays in the new book “Touch Wood” (@LarsMullerBooks) recognize the need for a shift in how we think about trees—and inadvertently show why it has yet to happen, writes @edwinheathcote. #sustainability #architecture.
