It may not be the most beautiful building but you sure made it look pretty good. I like the angle you took this at. Very nice

I really hope some day the "green roof" will be a commonplace.

Anyhoo, the design of this building is really interesting and this angle makes the odd little window on the "tip" look even smaller and misplaced. The strong vertical lines with this dim light make it almost scary.

maybe there are commonplace, how would we know?
a world of private and secret gardens
amongst the concrete

thanks

An amazing facade. It appears to have no weight or depth...just a couple of pieces of painted cardboard propped up to form an angle. The weightlessness contributes to the manufactured-ness of the structure, which illustrates your point. Well done!

stuck together with sticky tape on the inside
very cheap to build, will last for 50 years as long as it doesn't rain, or get windy
all part of the need to house the homeless
they are used to living in cardboard boxes
