yesterday wasn't exactly the best day to take photos, got chased out twice by the security at 2 different places & was caught in a heavy downpour. Hopefully next week will be better
A new building at a local business park. Most of the buildings are nondescript but the roof of this building is interesting. I stood directly in front of it and isolated one of the repeating units. The roof top door looks out of place.
Map of Paris using OpenStreetMap data.
The aim of this map is to highlight the geometry and hierarchy of the road layout.

Challenge of the week is an open interpretation of "Geometry". Shelter in place wields its heavy weight again on this one as I stared at the ceiling in the basement while doing my quarantine workouts.

Urban Geometry. © Copyright 2019 G Dan Mitchell - all rights reserved.
A woman walks past a building with a display under construction.
One element of the urban/street world that fascinates me is the juxtaposition of "perfect" structures — geometric patterns, shiny metal, highly designed forms — with the imperfect and always-deteriorating nature of this world — peeling paint, dirty sidewalks, constant construction and reconstruction, accumulated dirt, and so forth. Long ago the fact that urban structures fell short of the theoretical perfection offered in architectural drawings bothered me, but now I find it fascinating.
This is an example of one of those little scenes that always seem to catch my eye. The facade fo this building is, from one perspective, quite boring, even though its patterned wall and metal lights depart from typical (and often rather plain) urban surfaces. But notice some interesting things about it. For example, because the sidewalk and street are inclined, the designer was faced with a question: align the metal form beneath the windows with the sidewalk or align them with one another? And if you align with the sidewalk — as is done here — what do you do about the size of the windows and about their alignment? (The sizes were kept the same, leaving the lower bank out of alignment... but they are "corrected" in the second level!) Beyond that, the contrast with the op-art nature of the under-construction window dressing is fascinating. I waited for a passer-by to enter the scene before making the exposure.
