editor Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 I found an interesting blog post called "This Bold House" -- Five architects who defy convention. Naturally, Wright is at the top of my list, though he's my least favorite. There's some Gaudi pictures I hadn't seen before as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TJones Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 (edited) Like the blog says, you have to be a Disney fan to appreciate Gaudi. He intentionally wanted the Casa Battlo' to look like a giant Marquerade Ball though. Look at those balconies and tell me what do you see ? Someone ought to recreate this in New Orleans on Bourbon St. Edited July 23, 2007 by TJones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lockmat Posted July 23, 2007 Share Posted July 23, 2007 (edited) That second one from the first post looks like it belongs at Disney.By the way. Does anyone read Mental Floss? One of my employees just gave me her latest issue to read. Haven't had a chance to yet. Edited July 23, 2007 by lockmat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at those balconies and tell me what do you see ?I see shark teeth, or maybe one of those big whales that filter krill through its grill.
