Il fut construit au milieu de la période allemande, en 1906, face à un besoin grandissant d'eau pour la garnison à proximité. Du haut de ses 50 mètres, il renferme jusqu'à 500 m³ de cette ressource essentielle, mais cela n'a pas été une sinécure. En effet, au début du XXe siècle, le Reichsland d'Elsaß-Lothringen est de plus en plus difficile à tenir et les pouvoirs de l'Empereur doivent toujours être renouvelé. La plupart du temps par des nominations ou des arrivés de troupe.

Dans notre cas présent, bien que l'eau était une ressource essentielle, la municipalité de pouvais pas se le permettre car elle n'en avait ni les moyens techniques ni les moyens financiers pour mener à bien ce projet. Behr, ingénieur des services des eaux fut amené en ville pour faire passer en force ce besoin militaire. La ville cède donc finalement et en moins de deux ans, près de 10 000 habitants furent rattaché à cette prouesse technologique de l'époque.

Composé des meilleurs matériaux de l'époque (béton + fer = béton armé), il fut magnifié par l'ajout d'un parement de brique jaune et dans un style tout aussi en vogue, le retour du roman (le néo-roman) si cher au Allemands à cette époque. Et le tout surmonté d'un toit en poivrière ayant eu en alternance les symboles des conquérants.

My photographic image of shadows and light of an old curved bench seat I captured whilst strolling through Dubbo Botanical Gardens, outback New South Wales, Australia.

This curved bench timber seat caught my attention with the late sun creating a nice defined shadow of the curves and wooden slats.

In this minimalist architectural study, I focused on how light plays across concrete surfaces to create subtle gradients and sharp edges. The composition explores the dialogue between rigid geometric forms and the flowing nature of light.

Champalimaud Centre: Where Science Meets Stunning Architecture by RudyMareelPhotography

The Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown in Lisbon is a biomedical research center specializing in neuroscience and cancer studies. Opened in 2010 and designed by Charles Correa, its modern architecture sits along the waterfront, offering striking geometric lines and open spaces. I spent a couple of hours capturing its curves, reflections, and dynamic light—an ideal spot for photography.

This Gothic Revival architecture in the piers support the rail part of the Huey P. Long Bridge, which is among the longest rail bridges in the U.S. It works nicely for the geometry theme since a pointed arch is derived from the intersection of two circles.

MiMo or Miami Modern is the name coined by Randall Robinson and Teri D’Amico to describe the architecture that flourished in South Florida from 1945 until the late 1960s.

In their words:

MiMo is not a single style, but rather a confluence that includes the world-renowned Resort glamour of Morris Lapidus, the sublime Subtropical Modernism of Igor B. Polevitzky, and the flamboyant Latin infusion of Enrique Gutierrez, the architect of one of the Southland’s Modernist masterpiece, the Bacardi USA building. The common denominator is a time — the heady decades after the war — and a place — the subtropical environs of South Florida.

Miami Modern is further classified into two distinct strains, Resort MiMo and Subtropical Modernism. The visual “lineage” for both the resort and subtropical versions of Miami Modern can be traced to Miami’s emerging modern movement beginning in the 1930s. Local architects adapted elements of the International, 19 Streamline Moderne and Art Deco styles in their versions of contemporary buildings. Resort MiMo of the 1950s is a product of the experimentations. best represented by the vivid scenographic expressions of Miami Beach architects.

Resort MiMo is associated with the 1950s and 1960s and the influences of Hollywood set design, automobile styling, military jets and the space race. The American fascination with Futurism was a pervasive influence in the designs of Resort MiMo. It was realized in architectural form by acute angles, boomerangs and trapezoidal forms.

Subtropical Modernism was a strain of the modern movement that recognized the needs of a year-round population rather than solely the demands of the winter-resort guests. As a result, designers addressed the humidity and heat of summer by making accommodations for breezy corridors, covered galleries and shady courtyards. Subtropical Modernism also employed elements associated with the International Style of architecture that included glass walls and low-slung lines, flat roofs and wide eaves and free-flowing interior spaces. Many of the motels along Biscayne Boulevard are impressive examples of Resort Miami Modernism.
