Not far from the repurposed wooden church in Low Head, Tasmania, we find someone's modern definition of domestic bliss. The colour scheme and the word 'Enamor' all point to Spanish origins. Think what you will of this house, but for the owner 'enamor' means to be "in love." And that's all we can ask for really to have domestic bliss.

Seen from below, glass and sky merge into an almost weightless architecture. The crane house’s reflective façade throws back the image of its own forms, while the white fades outward like mist into nothingness.

Von unten gesehen verschmelzen Glas und Himmel zu einer fast schwerelosen Architektur. Die spiegelnden Fassaden des Kranhauses werfen das Bild seiner eigenen Formen zurück, während das Weiß nach außen hin wie Nebel ins Nichts übergeht.
Between steel and glass, the staircase rises like a sculptural vein at the heart of the crane house. The protruding structures catch the light, turning the architecture into something almost abstract – an urban geometry revealed only at second glance.

Zwischen Stahl und Glas erhebt sich das Treppenhaus wie eine skulpturale Ader im Herzen des Kranhauses. Die oberen Gebäudeteile fangen das Licht und lassen die Architektur fast abstrakt wirken – eine urbane Geometrie, die man erst auf den zweiten Blick erkennt.
Morning golden hour at "The Dalí"
The Salvador Dalí Museum is an art museum in St. Petersburg, Florida, United States, dedicated to the works of Salvador Dalí. Designed by Yann Weymouth, the museum is located on the downtown St. Petersburg waterfront, Florida.
At the corner where Lisbon’s Avenida da Liberdade meets Rua Alexandre Herculano, a striking dialogue unfolds between two centuries of architecture. An ornate Art Nouveau façade, adorned with soft blue stucco and intricate plaster details, stands in seamless conversation with a gleaming glass tower that rises above it. Together they tell the story of Lisbon’s evolving urban identity—a city where modernity doesn’t erase the past but embraces it.
The original early twentieth-century structure, with its sculpted balconies and arched windows, reflects the optimism of a newly industrial Portugal. Its elegant symmetry and classical ornamentation reveal a careful balance between restraint and flourish, typical of Lisbon’s Belle Époque architectural vocabulary. Corinthian pilasters, carved garlands, and wrought-iron railings were designed not just for beauty, but as a statement of civic pride—an architectural promise that the city would always look upward.
Decades later, when Lisbon began to redefine itself for the contemporary era, the building’s upper floors were encased in mirrored glass. Rather than demolish or conceal the older façade, architects chose to preserve and reinterpret it—an act of adaptive reuse that honors both craftsmanship and progress. The new structure reflects clouds, sky, and surrounding rooftops, creating a living canvas that changes with each passing moment.
Standing here, one can feel the weight of Lisbon’s layered history. Horse-drawn carriages once clattered along this boulevard; now bicycles and electric cars glide by. Pedestrians pause at the corner café, their reflections rippling across the mirrored façade. Above them, the Art Nouveau curves—each carved flourish weathered but resilient—remind us that permanence and change can coexist in the same breath.
The interplay of glass and stone becomes a metaphor for Lisbon itself: a city shaped by earthquakes and empires, now reborn through creativity and respect for its architectural heritage. The reflection of the historic dome within the tower’s surface is more than coincidence—it’s dialogue made visible. The building stands as a case study in urban evolution, where architectural preservation becomes an act of storytelling.
In architectural photography, moments like this invite both precision and wonder. The vertical sweep of the façade draws the eye upward, while the mirrored surfaces blur the boundaries between solid form and open sky. It’s a composition of contrast and continuity—old craftsmanship meeting modern abstraction.
Lisbon’s enduring charm lies in this balance: the courage to build forward without forgetting the artistry behind. This corner, caught between reflection and reality, feels like the city in miniature—resilient, elegant, and endlessly reinventing itself.

I was drawn to the repetitive patterns and the smooth curvature of this modern architectural design. The black-and-white treatment highlights the interplay of light and shadow, transforming this structure into abstract dunes that seem both artificial and natural.

For me, definitely an element of Transformers to this building. I was particularly intrigued by this structure at the top and learned that it is a stainless steel reflector which deflects sunlight downwards to filter light throughout the building.

'Every aspect of the 5 Green Star-rated building is designed to reduce energy consumption and enhance the wellbeing of its occupants. Natural ventilation is provided via a vast funnel-shaped cavity which draws warm air up and outwards through automated louvres. The louvres open and close in response to wind direction and temperature to maintain a stable internal temperature. Cleverly designed sun shades on the windows decrease the amount of direct sunlight pouring in to the building making it hot. These features combined reduce ASB’s energy use by 50%'.

Along the rugged Sonoma Coast, the Sea Ranch Lodge glows warmly under the rising moon, its cedar siding and angular lines blending seamlessly with wind-shaped cypress and ocean air. Designed in the 1960s by architect Charles Moore and the MLTW firm, Sea Ranch redefined modernism with its quiet harmony between architecture and landscape. The path leading through native shrubs creates a sense of discovery—an approach that mirrors the community’s ethos of living gently on the land. As twilight deepens, light spills from within, echoing the enduring spirit of this Northern California masterpiece of restraint, reflection, and natural beauty.

A captivating perspective of a building in the French village of Bana Hills, Vietnam. Stone bats intricately crafted into the architecture seem to take flight, their wings reaching towards the sky. This unique blend of art and structure invites contemplation of the mystical within the stone facade.
Interesting reflective cladding on a nearby closed down warehouse makes for a stunning image as the sun sets bringing out the colour perfectly.
Embarcadero Center in San Francisco is an iconic example of modernist architecture, embodying the city’s mid-20th-century urban redevelopment vision. Comprising five office towers, the center stretches along the Embarcadero waterfront, offering a blend of commercial, retail, and public spaces. This photo highlights the striking linear symmetry of the building’s balconies, each one precisely aligned in a grid-like pattern that emphasizes repetition and rhythm. The design, characterized by minimalist aesthetics, exudes a sense of order and efficiency, reflecting the architectural trends of the 1960s and 1970s. The repetitive vertical lines of the balconies draw the eye upward, while the muted color palette enhances the structure's bold, geometric forms. Designed by architect John C. Portman Jr., Embarcadero Center is a testament to the urban planning and architectural ingenuity of its era. Its clean lines and functional design have made it a landmark in San Francisco's Financial District, symbolizing both the city’s economic prowess and its embrace of modernity. Whether viewed up close or from a distance, the Embarcadero Center’s architectural significance and its place in the fabric of San Francisco are undeniable, making it a must-see for architecture enthusiasts and visitors alike.
The frame and the walls are made of wood - a climate-positive building that stores carbon dioxide. It's a super insulated passive house. On the roof there are solar cells. 41 apartments in two buildings in a tenant-owners' society called "Brf Notuddsparken". On the ground floor there is a room for parking and washing of bicycles. The tenants have two electric transport bikes and two electric cars they share. Those two cars have parking places next to the two buildings - other cars have to use the multistory car park at the entrance to the neighborhood. The buildings will be environmentally classified.
