I've worked at a lot of architectural firms, and while I assume it's not the case in most the pictured building here, a lot of architects treat the interior of the building as an afterthought.
A good designer should create functional spaces with a cohesion between the exterior and interior of a building with form and materials.THE HOUSE OF DIS

I really like how the ivy changes the façade of these buildings as well. I also like how Ann's atelier (center building) compliments but doesn't mimic or detract from the original Corbusier structure.
I also like that pigeons were caught in the frame of this photo.THE HOUSE OF DIS

Finally, I would like to show you this beautiful "Telephone Tower", located in central Stockholm between 1887 and 1953:
The tower, standing 45 meters tall on a rooftop, is mostly riveted steel beams, and it was used to drag telephone cables to households. From the early 1890's to the 1930's, the cables were relocated underground, and the tower lost it's function, which - along with its publicly perceived ugliness and risk of collapsing due to a fire - led to its demolition.Last edited by mesko; 02-06-2010, 03:19 PM.
