#english bay
It’s been such a bad mental health time. I thought about writing about some things last year, in the summer, not long after I finished antibiotics. I took a picture of some cookies I made and was going to talk about some of what was happening and how I was trying to manage things. I didn’t, as in the end I felt like I had nothing useful to say. I still feel like I have nothing much to say. I went out and enjoyed the sun and took some pictures. Here they are. The world is beautiful.

A new seawall along the English Bay coastline in Vancouver, BC, designed as an alternative to a purely functional infrastructures by landscape architects Paul Sangha, working with a biologist and engineers.
In addition to the angular wall, plantings and strategically placed boulders create a more porous edge, slowing the flow of water and the deposit of sediment, and building up a new sand beach
The seawall is designed as a functional piece of infrastructure but also becomes a careful steward of the greater landscape.
