The Roman district of Garbatella was designed in 1920 by famous architects and intended for the working class of the time. The style is the "Roman late baroque", with sinuous shapes that give life to neo-medieval buildings.
the whole district, with the fountains, the buildings, the balconies, the villas, the stuccoes and the green spaces, recalls this concept of the Garden City and can be considered a large open-air monument as well as an example of humanistic architecture
dictionary: "An architect is a person who plans, designs and oversees the construction of buildings"
That's like saying Picasso put paint on canvas...
Where once there was only sky we now have 'The Sky'. - Not just a building occupying space, but an entity becoming part of that space.
In the architect's imagination they envisioned the direct relationship between the physical sky and clouds to the reflected clouds. The soft sky to the Euclidean lines of their structure. - together through their relationship they each achieve presence.
photo: a matter of gradation. As a raging storm approached from behind I aimed toward the tranquil blue sky before me. Capturing the east and west, blues turned gray, the air cooled as the breeze angered to a wind.
In reality all credit for this photo goes to the architect. I just saw what they wanted me to see.

Cube houses are a set of innovative houses built in Rotterdam and Helmond in the Netherlands, designed by architect Piet Blom and based on the concept of "living as an urban roof": high density housing with sufficient space on the ground level. Blom tilted the cube of a conventional house 45 degrees, and rested it upon a hexagon-shaped pylon. His design represents a village within a city, where each house represents a tree, and all the houses together, a forest.

Das Kubushaus (auch Kubuswohnung, Baumhaus) ist ein Entwurfsmuster für Wohngebäude, das von dem Architekten Piet Blom auf der Basis von würfelförmigen, auf einer Ecke stehenden Baukörpern entwickelt wurde. In Helmond und Rotterdam wurden zwei Gebäudekomplexe errichtet, die modular aus diesen Baukörpern zusammengesetzt wurden.
Der Kubus mit der Kantenlänge von 7,5 Metern ist gekippt und steht auf einer Ecke, so dass drei Seiten nach unten und drei nach oben zeigen. Blom sprach von „Straßenhaus“ und „Himmelshaus“.

From a distance it looks like a cathedral, but however it is the former long-distance transmitter "Radio Kootwijk" that maintained the radio traffic between the Netherlands and their former colony of Indonesia.
The "Cathedral" consists of concrete in which no iron or steel has been processed, so as not to disturb the radio signal.
The architect Julius Luthmann was inspired for the design by the German "Telefunken" broadcasting station and the Giza Sphinx, which can bee seen from the "front legs" that formed the entrance.
The "pond" in front of the building was the cooling water reservoir that the immense transformers and generators had to cool.

North façade of the Stanford Memorial Church from the Main Quad Stanford Memorial Church (also referred to informally as MemChu)[1] is located on the Main Quad at the center of the Stanford University campus in Stanford, California, United States. It was built during the American Renaissance[2] by Jane Stanford as a memorial to her husband Leland. Designed by architect Charles A. Coolidge, a student of Henry Hobson Richardson, the church has been called "the University's architectural crown jewel".[3]
Note: On the way down to Monterey Bay Aquarium, we visited here as that's where my good friend's niece got married. As a student of such, you're able to get married at this church, but, it has to be before your graduation.
Estadi Olímpic Lluís Companys, formerly known as the Estadi Olímpic de Montjuïc or Barcelona Olympic Stadium) is a stadium in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain.

Commande de la Commune d'Andrézieux-Bouthéon
Au début des années 1970, Total commande à l'architecte et ingénieur Jean Prouvé une centaine de stations-service modulaires. Certaines sont encore en fonctionnement en France et en région parisienne (dont trois en Essonne), d'autres ont même été inscrites aux monuments historiques, et quelques-unes ont été vendues aux enchères. Car ces stations « Prouvé » sont devenues collector.

A view of the entrance to the Louvre via the Louvre Pyramid designed by the Chinese-American architect I. M. Pei. Where I was standing to take the photo was as near as possible to get to the building. I liked the two black cubes either side of the photo but I can't remember what they were for? Bins perhaps? You can also see to the right the red metal things. They had what appeared to be powerful lights on the top. Again, not sure what that was all about, perhaps floodlighting? I appreciated the touch of red. :-)

This set design is done by one of our Project Architects Gary's wife in our firm, she is also architect but she's been taking advantage of being architect to design unique set design.
It was pretty cool to see her design jazzing up Othello...
Architect Bertrand Goldberg’s innovative vision, River City, has stood the test of time. Within the iconic landmark, the South Loop apartments and community-driven spaces combine all aspects of life (live, work, play, learn) along the Chicago River.
You'll recognize Goldberg's work from River City's bigger, older sister, Marina City (aka the "Corn Cobs") seen in the first comment below.
