do you know that when i met ruby we discovered we had both lived in the same cold damp ugly house in wellington, but years apart? the cafe we were in was just down the street, which is why i mentioned it to her. we were going to go and look at it again but we kept talking and ran out of time.

http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd118/embarchie/Herzog__de_Meuron_New_York_1_S.jpgbuncha bunch more great imagesIn the design by Herzog & de Meuron for 560 Leonard Street the load-bearing structure is strategically absent in the façade. The round columns are placed where Le Corbusier put them: just off the wall. The effect is not so much that of weightlessness - the building still has a distinct, ‘heavy’ mass that firmly stands on the ground. No, combined with the hip displacement of the upper floors, the effect is that of the stack. A stack of 56 stories, to be precise.
I am tempted to write that we could consider the design to be an exhibit of the ‘vertical schism’ that Rem Koolhaas recognized in the early twentieth century skyscraper. That is only a small part of the design, I think. More importantly is that the stack as a whole has turned into a sculpture in which each floor in theory could shrink or grow, or even move. The only parameter that is fixed, apart from the floor-to-ceiling height and the inescapable glass facade, is the relation to the elevator core. After the ‘plan libre’, now there is the ‘free perimeter’.

Frank Lloyd Wright meets modern day prefab in the stunning Mod.Fab home, developed by students at Taliesin West in collaboration with their Dean Victor Sidy and Inhabitat favorite Jennifer Siegal. The goal of the collaboration was to build a prototype prefab conducive to elegant and sustainable living within the heart of the desert landscape. It only took a single picture for us to become instantaneous fans, and from passive solar design to photovoltaic panels and SIPs we’re thoroughly impressed with the project’s sustainable elements.

did you get in your reader a million times that "cameron's house" is for sale? i think every site i read posted it at least once!
it's funny that it's such a thing, but i guess i understand, because it's a fucking cool house.
if you don't know what i'm talking about, let me know. i'm sure i will be getting another blog post about it soon.
