Happy birthday to me. Unfortunately, I started this thing where we introduce our team on their birthday, so now it’s my turn 🤷🏻♀️
I’m Alli, Cygnet Brand Construction’s social media manager. I take you along in my pocket and share a bit of what I see.
I’m from New Zealand, and after a couple of trips around the world, I’ve happily landed near family here in beautiful Tasmania. I love being out in nature, making things, and climbing up mountains to snowboard down them.
We’ve been asking our team what buildings inspire them. Turns out picking just one is pretty hard.
So I’ve gone with a few favourites. I’m a sucker for Portuguese architecture and tiles, and the colourful doorways and gardens of Cartagena, Colombia.
Then there are the pyramids at Teotihuacán in Mexico 🤯 I’d never heard of it before visiting. It’s a whole ancient city, with geometry and symbolism woven into its layout. I couldn’t get over the thought and skill that went into building it all that time ago.
A few places I’m still thinking about, years later.
Anyway, nice to meet you ✌🏽
