This architecture practice director finds it hard to separate work and play

What is your favourite website?

What can I admit… We like Dezeen – we do look at that for a bit of architecture porn.

iPhone/Blackberry/Android. Which side are you on?

HTC Android

Are you into social networking? (linkedin, twitter, facebook etc)

Yes to all. I link LinkedIn to twitter so our updates appear on there as well.

What is your favourite app?

We swear by Evernote. It’s a scrapbook which you can chuck anything at – graphics, text, web pages and so on. It’s so searchable and it syncs with your computer.

What is your preferred means of communication? (eg. Email, phone, face to face, text etc)

Face-to-face but really it’s mostly email. It’s good to get that balance right.

What did you last buy online?

A Jungle Book DVD for my daughter

PC or Mac?

Personally I’m a Mac fan, but I was outvoted at work… But it suits us well – it’s mostly what our clients are using. It’s about balancing being a commercial practice with being a design practice.

Guilty pleasures: Most played tunes from iTunes/Spotify?

The Raconteurs – Steady as she goes. It’s our Friday album in the studio at the moment.
