What I Love: Vol 1

April 8, 2008

I love architecture.

I love great spaces, love great light, love great materials, love great volumetrics.

I love stained glass, tall rooms, diffuse lighting.

I love the ecofire company (and what they make) for my love of fire without the soot and emissions.

I love the quote by Winston Churchill :”We shape our buildings, then our buildings shape us.”

I love the simple yet sublime geometrics, interplay of spaces and quality of light of the great moderns.  I love the complex richness and carved surfaces of the gothic.  I love the solid simplicity of the ancients.  And how each of those show up in each other, and in combination in the new today.

I love the power of the monument (and monumental).  I love the beauty and whole-istic-ness of small constructions.

I love surprise.  I love spaces that fit like a great robe.

I love adaptive reuse!
