Ugly Architecture and Ugly Product Design

Todd Lappin of Telstar Logistics on SF's new highrise at One Rincon:

The problem isn't the scale or the height; as a friend of Progress and Industry, Telstar Logistics welcomes high-rise construction in San Francisco's downtown area. No, the problem is the exterior curtain wall designed by architects at Chicago's Solomon Cordwell Buenz. The curtain wall achieves a remarkable effect: The more finished One Rincon gets, the less interesting the building becomes. [Link]

New Home

shared by kalle anka

It's great to have found a new home so soon. Obviously, if I could live anywhere, I would have emptied Niemeyer's Niteroi Museum and made it my own. But that's just not going to happen, so Think in Pictures will just have to do...

There are a few more photographs of Niemeyer's buildings here.

Add-on: There is a very cool Niemeyer inspired typography here. Just find the link to Utopia.
