of green gables: great minds think...
http://ofgreengables.blogspot.com/2010/04/great-minds-think.html
Wednesday, April 21, 2010. This morning I woke up to a NYTimes architecture alert: A Concrete-and-Glass Town House in Barcelona. I secretly love when the alerts take me to the Great Homes and Destinations section.it's always something pretty fabulous. The architect describes this as an open-air "internal terrace" - which was exactly my motivation for the unique flooring material too. Bummer. I've got to make it work! Would be a great rendering! See more of this "Great Home and Destination" here.

of green gables: burj kh-AH!-lifa
http://ofgreengables.blogspot.com/2010/03/burj-kh-ah-lifa.html
Wednesday, March 3, 2010. Tomorrow, William F. Baker, the engineer of the world's tallest building, Burj Khalifa. In Dubai, is giving a lecture at Pratt. While I have great respect for this tremendous feat of architectural design and engineering, this place scares the living daylights out of me. The thought of the restaurant on level 122 or the observation deck on level 124 is terrifying. My heart goes out for the window-washing crew of Burj Khalifa. Looking down. AH! Looking up. Ooooo! New York, NY.

of green gables: blueprints as art
http://ofgreengables.blogspot.com/2010/03/blueprints-as-art.html
Thursday, March 25, 2010. I think architectural drawings are gorgeous and I'm supremely bummed I wasn't smart enough to think of this first (darn you, Kevin Busta. Collage on vintage blueprint drawings seen here. Brilliant. Am in love. Now I'm definitely going to be on search for old and beautiful blueprints. Would love to find one large print, cut into 9 smaller pieces and frame individually in a series. Or just DIY collage. Silhouette collage, might I add! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). A CUP OF JO.

https://luftstadt.wordpress.com/about
Musings on city and architecture. This is perhaps a long over-due project. A desire to archive, record and perhaps vent my thoughts on the city. any city, anything about any city, perhaps mostly about the ones I cared about. What makes a city? What un-makes a city? Who lives in it? Who gives it the life it so badly needs, in order to be even considered to be a city? Whats a world-class city and whats the big deal about the need to be that? Whats so successful, whats probably not. Design made in germany.

about words. | LUFT | STADT
https://luftstadt.wordpress.com/duets
Musings on city and architecture. A collection of duet words…. I don’t know, they almost always intrigue me somehow. Two completely unrelated words being put together to make something more. Just like in a city, where different building, streets, parks simply come together to become something much bigger. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts? NUMBERS: two face / no way / zero gravity / one way / quad space/ double trouble/ half time. COMPLIMENTARY: ground plan /. Design made in germany.
