Introduction

After starting in Edinburgh in 2000 this online architecture resource is now one of the top globally in terms of traffic plus number of pages and images ranked.

e-architect is one of the world's largest architecture websites with around 17,000 pages. e-architect is run by Adrian Welch and Isabelle Lomholt. Adrian and Isabelle both trained as architects but their strong interest in architecture led them to focus their energies on an online architectural resource rather than practicing.

The principal website is www.e-architect.co.uk but the first website was edinburgharchitecture.co.uk set up in 2000 followed by glasgowarchitecture.co.uk two years later, and e-architect in early 2006. The initial concept was to provide information on new buildings that would be helpful for not just local architects but a wide range of locals and tourists. Over time as connections were made this successful model was expanded and now includes all major cities in the world.

The principal difference between e-architect and other architecture sites is that we don’t just carry news: on e-architect buildings can be searched by country, city or by type. You can also search for buildings by architect. For example you could find information on the proposed Nou Camp Stadium on the Spanish, Barcelona and Football Stadium pages.

e-architect.co.uk features building news, events, competitions, photos, jobs, awards and products. We feature a range of building types from houses to skyscrapers, plus major landscape and interior projects.

To give an idea of range we cover buildings from the USA to Papua New Guinea and from China to the Faroe Islands.

Our weekly This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. , run by Isabelle Lomholt, is now emailed to over 21,000 readers globally. Each week we have a different guest editor - you are welcome to contact us if you are interested to being an editor. e-architect also has facebook, twitter, linkedin, youtube, instagram, tumblr and pinterest pages.

Our policy is to focus on getting regular news about the most interesting buildings and on building up a useful, wide-ranging architectural resource. The news is updated daily 7 days a week. e-architect has around 1,500 pages on architects.

Agenda

Of course we have strong views on architecture, but our policy is to focus on getting regular news about the most interesting buildings and on building up a useful, wide-ranging architectural resource.

We select projects that interest us. So we might cover an intriguing house design but not a major commercial development. We show buildings sometimes that are stimulating even though we may not like the project. We aren't here to promote any specific style or approach to architecture, we show an eclectic range of work that read over time builds up a picture of current architectural status and direction.

We try and maximise the visual aspect of architecture. Architects tend to be highly visual people and we try and show many images for each project, it is not always possible to do this depending on our sources, but the intention is always there. We have a house style for image processing and for text presentation, but again we sometimes can't access the raw materials to make this happen consistently.

But back to views and agenda. We both trained as architects in different universities and have views that sometimes differ. We express these through our weekly newsletter, but also over the last twelve years we have written numerous articles in other press, and online at e-architect. Some links below show a small selection of these.
