There are times when creativity and talent are not enough to produce a good architectural design. Despite being in the business for years now, I still find myself hungry for that special “something” to get my train of thought running. And so, like everyone else, I browse the Internet for inspiration.
For those in need of design inspiration, these websites are highly recommended:
Archiphile (www.archiphile.tumblr.com). While the blog owner remains anonymous until this day, his page, which contains hundreds of interesting building designs from different countries, has inspired thousands of designers throughout the years.
ArchDaily Error! Hyperlink reference not valid. architectural website that probably attracts the most traffic in the world, ArchDaily provides readers almost anything architecture—from news and features to the latest designs and trends in the industry.
Houzz Populated with user-uploaded content (mostly photos), this website does more than selling various products online. You’d be surprise on what you can actually find here.
Apartment therapy. I consider this website more of an online magazine with much content about style and DYI features. I recommend this to those who are more methodical with their concepts.
Abitare. The website is owned by one of the world's best known design magazines, Abitare, which has been running since the 60s. Apart from architecture, the website also focuses on interior design, furniture, product design, and graphic arts.
These websites, which I consider my style bibles, have helped me through rough times. I hope they can help you, too.
