That may not be architecture, but that image is slick as gently caress. Suddenly I am curious as to what would happen if Gehry tried to design a van.

Oh hey the London Death Ray is finished and it's won it's first award, Building Design Magazine's Carbuncle Cup, for the worst building of the year http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/architecture-design-blog/2015/sep/02/walkie-talkie-london-wins-carbuncle-cup-worst-building-of-yearGuardian posted:Responsible for a catalogue of catastrophes, it is hard to imagine a building causing more damage if it tried. It stands at 20 Fenchurch Street, way outside the city’s planned “cluster” of high-rise towers, on a site never intended for a tall building. It looms thuggishly over its low-rise neighbours like a broad-shouldered banker in a cheap pinstriped suit. And it gets fatter as it rises, to make bigger floors at the more lucrative upper levels, forming a literal diagram of greed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlRNO8xcrgU Good job everyone!

if the idea is that it's the future's idea of a concept car, then that might make sense you can totally believe it's by gehry because it looks like a normal item coveres in paper or gum, in this case a mouse Neurolimal fucked around with this message at 15:32 on Sep 2, 2015 |

SilverSoldat posted:The now closed World of Darkness at the Bronx Zoo in NYC was a hideous concrete fortress, but the bats it contained were always awesome. My family visited that zoo almost every month when I was a kid. I loving loved that place. Neat colored lighting, nocturnal animals just hanging out, replica caves and rain forests, cute bats, scorpion exhibits with UV lights you could turn on to make them glow in the dark, a cut-away naked mole rat colony, the works. God, that exhibit.

Lucy Heartfilia posted:Yeah, I could imagine living there. In fact, it seems like a perfectly logical development of city development (moreso than glass shitscrapers); use more vertical space, preserve ground space, provide shade when global warming dooms us all. It would also be pretty good for making larger Roof Gardens.

Plethora posted:Why were the 1970's so obsessed with brown, orange, and yellow? Such an odd color combination to become trendy. They were obsessed with all saturated colors. I think it's why pastels did so well in the 1980s. People remember "signature" colors from that time because they were common on household items like fridges and telephones. Harvest Gold, Avocado Green, etc. Any color could be used on any product, in combination with any other color. Or pattern! Or texture! There was plenty of nice design in the 1970s but much of it was drowned out by all the horrible bullshit. There were some gorgeous and classy interiors that showcased the glass/chrome/wood/leather approach and although they'd look dated today they wouldn't look atrocious. EDIT: Jesus christ.

The only reason the enterprise CUSA is included there is because the family of the Administrator of the Panama Canal owns it. What conflict of interest do you mean?
