Archiseek.com is an ongoing project of Paul Clerkin, an Irish web developer, currently in Winnipeg, Canada but normally based in Dublin, Ireland. The Irish part of the site, Archeire.com was started in 1997 and the site has continuously grown from there. The site is aimed at both the general public and the architecture community. "I want to encourage the average person to enter into the architectural debate, not to be afraid of architecture-speak and terminology. Your view is as valid as the head of any architecture body."
Archeire, has won many awards for its content and community, including two Golden Spiders (the Oscars of the Irish Internet world): one in 1997 for Best Non-Commercial site; and one in 2000 for Best Online Community / Special Interest. It has also been a runner up in 1998. In addition to the two Golden Spiders, Archeire has been singled out by many newspapers and journals over the years including Architectural Review, AJ, The Irish Times, the BBC, the New York Times, The Guardian, and Yahoo.com as a Site of the Week.
This site has 12,000 pages. For much more information please Click Here
