UrbaNerd Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Psst Niche...is this sorta similar to your dream lair thingy? Well, other than the lack of the Geodesic dome on top, it's quite similar in design! Look up the Melnikov House, in Moscow, Russia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNiche Posted July 15, 2009 Share Posted July 15, 2009 Psst Niche...is this sorta similar to your dream lair thingy?Well, other than the lack of the Geodesic dome on top, it's quite similar in design! Look up the Melnikov House, in Moscow, Russia.Kinda similar. It was clearly very cutting-edge for its day, but maintained a traditional sense of scale and priorities for open spaces. It's much shorter than what I had in mind for NicheLair and also has two integrated cylinders instead of a monolithic phallic shape. Also, the transparent windows detract from the concept, which I'm pretty sure was to emphasize the pattern of negative space that comprised the exterior walls. The windows need to be much darker. It probably looks better at night, all lit up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
