My friend Robert is an architect and teaches architecture. He recently set his students the task of designing a structure for 'a buddhist with modern tendencies' - an assignment that kind of caught my fancy. Being more of a decorator than a designer, I'd be up for taking a shot at the interior/exterior, even though it's oh so difficult to avoid some of the cliches that are often associated with the practise. Needless to say, the materials would be eco-friendly and the home self-sustainable, incorporating recycled surfaces.

*Stockholm Kallbadhus is a proposal for a public outdoor bath which is completely passive, iconic and sustainable (and located in the central harbour of the city).
