feast your eyes on london’s festival of architecture

Brazilian piece: Museu do Pão, Rio Grande do Sul, by Brasil Arquitetura
The London Festival of Architecture is going on for a month from June 20 to July 20, 2008 and Baby, I wish I were there. In the mean time, I can drool a bit over some of the stunning and award winning architectural works featured. As reported on WallPaper.com, “Eco themes are evident too at the Greener Than Thou exhibition at Swedish office furniture showroom Kinnarps, where Swedish A-list architects from Johannes Norlander to Marge are showing work.” Very cool. Check these out:
Brazilian architecture, Club NOX, Recife, by Metro Arquitetura+Juliano Dubeux What an other worldly piece of art.
Copenhagen, Denmark: Bikuben student residence by Aart Imagine : I love the orange gray combination. So European.
Oh Brazil, here you are again with Sonic Studio, São Paulo, by Anne Save de Beaurecueil+Franklin Lee. Check out that ceiling. It’s a designer’s dream.

Hi Cheryl,
This posting on the London show is so fabulous! There’s something about great, or just interesting architecture that really inspires me. Amazing how good design in our person-made world can give us hope and energy while bad design can do just the opposite. These pictures really reinforce that feeling for me.
Keep focused on this sort of stuff - it’s what makes your site special.
