bloggy time

Firstly, please allow me to gloat on how well critiques went. No bodily fluids were spilt and nothing blew up in my face. The critics were genuinely intrigued by what I had to say and when it was done I felt great.

Well in related news, one of my critics was none other than Jeana Ripple, hailing from Studio Gang. DROOL ! Come to think of it under the guidance of my studio professor I'd had the opportunity to have some direct contact with some of the "sexiest" firms ... and for that I'm thankful. Anyhow, I mention this not only to gloat but to note the similarity between my project and their firm's Starlight Theatre


OK so this doesn't roll break into 30 different pieces nor does it 'teeter' away, but it is modular and transformative. This picture begins to show the roof which folds open.

Another project similar to mine I suppose would be the Prada transformer. It's a building that rolls from one facade to the other to best suit its need for that moment.



After seeing this kind of sensational architecture day in and day out I suppose it's going to be difficult to work again at a firm that sticks to designing cookie cutter houses.
