      Maybe not really fine design, but quirky, and looks a little better than that old chunk of wood. Foot in the Door by Liz Dubois, Anthony Petrie (sorry no URL ?)

                Fine design in architecture can be quite controversial. There is a defender for every movement and style. I'm going to subject the next series of posts to architecture of all kinds. Feel free to endorse or malign.
                This will of course be done over a period of time.

                  The facade of the building is made out of timber, which was obtained from old wine tanks, from the wineries nearby. The use of this material meant that no paints or sealants was required due to the tight-grained nature of the hardwood

                                  If you aren't aware of Lebbeus Woods, you certainly should have a look at this incredible visionary architect/artist/ philosopher's work. http://lebbeuswoods.net/

                                      I love architecture. I must have been an architect in another life.....anyway, these images show us that design (more or less) could take different shapes.

                                        Do you have the architects (conceptualist or otherwise) on the first two images, I would like to follow up. 👍

                                            For the first one, go to project list, and search for 2002 project.
