COACH.

Coaching is first and foremost learning, and mine is seated in the conviction that greater perception of and interaction with the world around us can provide untold levels of inspiration, and indeed propose solutions, if we only looked closely enough. When we create something, it is added to an existing framework, it is an intervention in an existing situation with its own unique qualities. Developing methods of research and observation to discover and integrate these qualities is paramount. In 2015 Michelle published,Research-Observe-Make, An Alternative Manual for Architectural Education”, with Birkhäuser Verlag

 →research →observe →make: Acting, not just problem solving, using research and observation to propose new futures for others and our profession, seeking more than representation.
