Why subscribe?

“To work our way towards a shared language once again, we must first learn how to discover patterns which are deep, and capable of generating life,” or so says architect and theorist Christopher Alexander.

Cool, you say. But I’m not an architect. So why do I need these patterns?

“Once you understand this way, you will be able to make your room alive; you will be able to design a house together with your family; a garden for your children; places where you can work; beautiful terraces where you can sit and dream.”

And that’s why you’d subscribe - to better understand the patterns that shape your life, to be able to shape, design and build a better way to live, work and dream.

How much does it cost?

The full membership is $5 per month, or $50 per year. A deal for the price of a nitro cold brew.

What do I get when I subscribe?

You will get one to two newsletters per week plus occasional free content. The newsletters will include essays, articles, how-tos and other such fol-de-rol.

You will also have the satisfaction of knowing that you are supporting an independent writer, and by that simple gesture are re-shaping the world in which you live. I thank you.

Can I forward the emails?

When it comes to the free posts, spread them as far and as wide as you like, on whatever platform you currently prefer. Occasionally forwarding subscribers-only emails is okay…just go easy.
