India Art n Design Global Hop: House of Convexities - 0 views

India Art n Design: Elitist Leanings - 0 views

  • Reinstating the role of design as an influential tool – in the look, feel and mood of a space, F.S.N.D. Architects brandish it to carve a stylish home with a view... It becomes even more challenging for a designer when he is put on a pedestal and is expected to deliver the ‘most wonderfully unique’ home that is going to make the client immeasurably house proud. Working on this ‘simple’ yet ‘demanding’ brief by the client, Form Space n Design Architects instil the “Wow” factor into 3500 sq ft. of penthouse space in a Mumbai suburb.

Preservationists in Chicago Fear Losing Ground to Condos - New York Times - 0 views

  •  
    Watch what's left of a once distinguished architectural legacy be destroyed because our city is run by idiots. Consider this quote: ""Beauty is in the eye of the beholder," Alderman Matlak said. "A lot of people don't want 19th-century buildings.I grew up in a frame house. My bedroom was 8 by 8. People don't want that now." Then - here's a wild idea. Maybe they might try moving into one of the neighborhoods that isn't historic? Which, in Chicago, is almost all of them, now? Speaking as somebody who lives in Chicago, I can report that the difference of opinion between the developers and the preservationists on this is not an honest one; the rate of demolition has not been exaggerated one bit..
