Ode to Structural Expressionism

Ode to Structural Expressionism

Eat your heart out, Pompidou!
Or should I say thank you, for shining a stage light on the incredible system that is a building, in this day and age.
Everyone inhabits these creations, but many do not realise the amazingly complex work that is required to make them habitable. The labourious work performed by the various tradesmen/women often goes unnoticed and unappreciated (oh yeah, I hate the constant noise too, so much). Well, guys, consider this my thank you post. For I can see the art in your work, just as Renzo Piano, Sir Richard Rodgers and many other Architects can.

Lin Residence – Blue Poles – Internet connection
Lin Residence – The Green Mile – Water supply
Lin Residence – Hope of a Condemned Man II – Lighting
Lin Residence – Composition with Blue – Heated water supply to radiant heating panels. And Internet connection
Lin Residence – The Heart and the Circulation – White arteries = fresh air vent. Black veins = Air conditioning. Red capillaries = Electricity
Lin Residence – Composition VII – The electrical masterpiece
