This is an old picture that I shot in 2008 when this futuristic looking restaurant was being renovated.
An unplanned shot at this famous restaurant located in Paris Gare de Lyon (train station). I was on my way to the restrooms and couldn't resist to grab my camera for a shot...
A must visit/eat place if you are in Paris.
Probably one of my fav restaurant in the city, I really like the ambiance there and its interieur design which is simply breathtaking (with art paints & many more). All these are in the first floor.

Gun, radio - what could they have in common? Well, both can be loud. And dangerous, each in their own way. Detail from the interior in the previous shot.

This unusual structure was once a diner on US highway 60 between the I-81 and the city of Buena Vista. Made of galvanized steel, it was possibly built in the 1930s and operated as a restaurant. It has had many commercial uses, one being a canoe rental business. From 2010-2012 it was the First Catch Fish Market. It was not is operation at the time of this photo. Shaped like a coffee pot (or tea pot), it comes complete with spout and handle.
Many thanks to mosbysraid for information on this unique structure.

Beijing has some of the funkiest restaurants in the world! I think that some of the interior designers and architects really take some risks to do all sorts of things with lighting, textures, and styles. It doesn't always work, but I think it works pretty well here.
This restaurant was right next to the opera (see my blog post on "Amazing Opera Discovery in Beijing"). This was also built inside one of the old imperial bans in this old sector of Beijing.

Brasserie Mijn Streek is located on the fifth floor of Heerlen's Glaspaleis (glass palace), which makes it the highest restaurant of the city! Enjoy a bite, salad, menu or just a drink in a convivial and casual atmosphere with the most beautiful view of the city.
History Glass Palace | architect Peutz
The Glaspaleis (in English: Glass Palace) is a modernist building in Heerlen, Netherlands, built in 1935. Formerly a fashion house and department store, Schunck, it is now the cultural centre of the city. The original name was Modehuis Schunck (Schunck Fashion House), but it was soon nicknamed Glaspaleis, which is now the official name.
The architectural style is largely according to what is in the Netherlands known as het Nieuwe Bouwen, which corresponds roughly to Modernism, Bauhaus and International style. The visually most distinguishing aspect is the free-standing glass that covers three sides, which makes it even more transparent than the famous Bauhaus building in Dessau and is part of the natural climate control.
This revolving restaurant design was prepared for submission to the Chicago World’s Fair Centennial committee. According to the magazine article: “The structure is spiral in effect with promenades and spaces for indoor and outdoor dining rooms. Both building and column revolve once each half hour, thus affording an opportunity for sightseeing while dining or strolling on the platforms. The model provides space inside the column for elevators, while at the base are foyers and a space for parking of automobiles.”

Trips to Wausau were never complete until we drove past this ancient, barely-molested T-Bell on 51, in Schofield. Other than some extra parking spaces cut into the front outdoor seating area, this "mission-style" location is complete even with its original pylon sign that dates back to the 70s and earlier. Taco Bell letters may also be missing on the building, between the presumably-fake bell. Inside it was just as original, save for updated signage.
UPDATE: Completely flattened in 2010, and a new restaurant was built in the adjacent parking lot. Laaaaammmeee.....

"Camp Westerbork (Dutch: Kamp Westerbork) was a transit camp in Drenthe province, northeastern Netherlands, during World War II. Established by the Dutch government in the summer of 1939, Camp Westerbork was meant to serve as a refugee camp for Germans and Austrians (German and Austrian Jews in particular), who had fled to the Netherlands to escape Nazi persecution.
Camp Westerbork was utilized as a staging ground for the deportation of Jews. Only one-half square kilometer (119 acres) in area, the camp was not built for the purpose of industrial murder as were Nazi extermination camps. Westerbork was considered by Nazi standards as “humane”. Jewish inmates with families were housed in 200 interconnected cottages that contained two rooms, a toilet, a hot plate for cooking, and a small yard. Single inmates were placed in oblong barracks which contained a bathroom for each sex.
Transport trains arrived at Westerbork every Tuesday from July 1942 to September 1944, and deported an estimated 97,776 Jews during the period. Jewish inmates were deported in waves to Auschwitz concentration camp (65 train-loads totaling 60,330 people), Sobibor (19 train-loads; 34,313 people), Theresienstadt ghetto, and Bergen-Belsen concentration camp (9 train-loads; 4,894 people). Almost all of the 94,643 persons deported to Auschwitz and Sobibor in German-occupied Poland were killed upon arrival.
Camp Westerbork also had a school, orchestra, hairdresser, and even restaurants designed by SS officials to give inmates a false sense of hope for survival and to aid in avoiding problems during transportation. Cultural activities provided by the Nazis for designated deportees included metalwork, jobs in health services, and other cultural activities. A special, separate work cadre of 2,000 “permanent” Jewish inmates was used as a camp labor force. Within this group was a sub-group constituting a camp police force which was required to assist with transports and keep order. The SS actually had very little to do with selecting transferees; this job fell to another class of inmates that made up a sort of security service. Most of these 2,000 "permanent" inmates were eventually sent to concentration or death camps themselves.
In 1949, when the Dutch left their over 300 year occupation of Indonesia, native Indonesians were left in political unrest. Some people who had collaborated with French, Algerian, and Dutch militaries were evacuated, because they were the subject of anger by the other indigenous people who had resisted colonization and felt betrayed at the Moluccan peoples siding with their colonizers. The peoples were promised a quick return to their homeland. However, from 1951 to 1971, former indigenous Moluccan KNIL soldiers and their families were made to stay in the camp. During this time, the camp was renamed Kamp Schattenberg." (Wikipedia)

This is the breakfrast room of a small hotel in Northern Germany. Outside, one can see the lake onto which the hotel looks. I loved the way the light comes into the room and gives it its special atmosphere.
The sight of opening night was one to hold.
A client pulled my defiantly ways to be bold.
Who gave me the reign to rain ideas from thin air.
Who let the firm stay stern to the design we care.
A client that let me dive deep steep into the project
To open my eyes to listen and love it is what caused it
To my invisible, invincible tower of power business partner.
Paco, my brother, vision is what you gave me to seek further.
www.braise.ca tell the owner how much you like the design? *snort*
