Sagrada Família Barcelona, Spain - situation 2017

Construction of the Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Família began in 1882. The temple is still under construction, with completion expected in 2026. It is perhaps the best known structure of Catalan Modernism, drawing over three million visitors annually. Architect Antoni Gaudi worked on the project until his death in 1926, in full anticipation he would not live to see it finished.

 

Gaudi was appointed architect in 1883 at 31 years of age, following disagreements between the temple’s promoters and the original architect, Francisco de Paula del Villar y Lozano. He maintained del Villar’s Latin cross plan, typical of Gothic cathedrals, but departed from the Gothic in several significant ways. Most notably, Gaudi developed a system of angled columns and hyperbolical vaults to eliminate the need for flying buttresses. Rather than relying on exterior elements, horizontal loads are transferred through columns on the interior. La Sagrada Familia utilizes three-dimensional forms comprised of ruled surfaces, including hyperboloids, parabolas, helicoids, and conoids. These complex shapes allow for a thinner, finer structure, and are intended to enhance the temple’s acoustics and quality of light. Gaudi used plaster models to develop the design, including a 1:10 scale model of the main nave measuring five meters in height and width by two meters in depth. He also devised a system of strings and weights suspended from a plan of the temple on the ceiling. From this inverted model he derived the necessary angles of the columns, vaults, and arches. This is evident in the slanted columns of the Passion facade, which recall tensile structures but act in compression.

 

Gaudi embedded religious symbolism in each aspect of La Sagrada Familia, creating a visual representation of Christian beliefs. He designed three iconic facades for the basilica, the Glory, Nativity, and Passion facades, facing south, east, and west, respectively. The sculpting of the Nativity facade recalls smooth, intricate corbelling and was overseen by Gaudi. The Passion Facade is characterized by the work of Josep Maria Subirachs, whose angular sculptures extend the modernist character of the temple. The sculptor Etsuro Sotoo is responsible for the window ornaments and finials, which symbolize the Eucharist. The central nave soars to a height of 45 meters, and is designed to resemble a forest of multi-hued piers in Montjuïc and granite. The piers change in cross section from base to terminus, increasing in number of vertices from polygonal to circular. The slender, bifurcating columns draw the eye upward, where light filters through circular apertures in the vaults. These are finished in Venetian glass tiles of green and gold, articulating the lines of the hyperboloids.

 

Once completed, La Sagrada Familia will feature eighteen towers. Four bell towers representing the Apostles crown each facade, reaching approximately 100 meters in height. At the north end, a tower representing the Virgin Mary will stand over the apse. The central tower will reach 72 meters in height and symbolize Christ, surrounded by four towers representing the Evangelists. Even as construction continues, older portions are undergoing cleaning and restoration. The temple has relied entirely on private donations since its inception, and has seen many delays due to lack of funding. A particularly significant setback occurred during the Spanish Civil War, when Gaudi’s workshop was destroyed, including much of the documentation he left behind. Subsequent generations of craftsman and architects have relied on the remaining drawings and plaster models to advance the project, adhering to Gaudi’s vision as closely as possible. As a result, the design of the temple is a collaboration spanning centuries. Gaudi himself viewed the project as the collective work of generations. "I will grow old but others will come after me. What must always be conserved is the spirit of the work, but its life has to depend on the generations it is handed down to and with whom it lives and is incarnated."

 

In recent decades, La Sagrada Familia has adopted contemporary digital design and construction technologies. Architects and craftsmen use Rhinoceros, Cadds5, Catia, and CAM to understand the complex geometries and visualize the building as a whole. Plaster models are still used as a design tool, now generated by a 3-D printer to accelerate the process.

The 44th Annual Jackson Assembly Antiques Show and Sale offered visitors the incredible opportunity to tour this magnificent, yet seldom seen structure.

 

The largest Grecian style building in the state and one of the oldest mental hospitals in continuous use.

 

From content.usatoday.net/dist/custom/gci/InsidePage.aspx?cId=...:

 

It used to be easy to get a close look one of the nation's first mental hospitals -- an asylum erected when it was radical to build a mental hospital that looked normal, recalls the president of the local historic preservation society.

 

It was one of the nation's first 10 mental hospitals when it opened in 1848 as the Insane Asylum of the State of Louisiana. More recently, it was known as East Louisiana State Hospital.

 

Now the campus has only one entrance. Visitors must sign in with identification, and are carefully monitored during their stay.

 

"It's a rare treat for people to come here, especially students of architecture," Woodyear said.

 

On Nov. 21, 1848, its first residents -- all 85 patients diagnosed as mentally ill at Charity Hospital in New Orleans -- arrived, traveling by steamboat up the Mississippi River to Bayou Sara, then by oxcart to the asylum.

February, 2010

This superb and breathtaking exhibition “Iris van Herpen. Sculpting the Senses,” currently on view at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, pays tribute to one of the most visionary fashion designers of her generation – and the simple term “fashion” almost seems out of place here as conventional standards of clothing are largely transgressed.

This retrospective is structured around nine themes and identifies the very essence of van Herpen’s work fusing fashion, contemporary art, design and science (and I could add: architecture).

Much more than an exhibition dedicated to Haute Couture, “Iris van Herpen. Sculpting the Senses", invites the visitor on an immersive journey into this singular and hybrid universe, punctuated by the designer's research and experiments.

One simple piece of advice: run for it!!!

 

COSMIC BLOOM

In her exploration of the cosmos, Iris van Herpen shows her talent for synthesis, combining the latest scientific discoveries with the history of art and science, blending the ancient maps of Andreas Cellarius with images from the James Webb telescope. The cosmos and its mysteries pique her imagination and her creativity. Like a metaphor of her holistic approach, the cosmos incarnates a space in which one can deploy oneself without limit, a symbol of absolute liberty. Colours float and come alive, offering new horizons for a body in levitation. For the designer, to understand the cosmos is to overturn the order of time and space and achieve elevation. The world becomes an all-encompassing entity, greater than the confines of planet Earth. It no longer develops from bottom up or top down, but in all of its dimensions simultaneously, as a multiverse, with no borders except those of the mind and the imagination, the soul and its cosmic journey.

--------------------------------------

La superbe et époustouflante exposition « Iris van Herpen. Sculpting the Senses », qui se tient actuellement au Musée des Arts Décoratifs à Paris rend hommage à l’une des créatrices de mode les plus visionnaires de sa génération – et le simple terme « mode » semble presque déplacé tant les normes conventionnelles du vêtement sont ici transgressées.

Cette rétrospective s’articule autour de neuf thématiques et recense l’essence même de son travail fusionnant mode, art contemporain, design et sciences (et je pourrais ajouter : architecture).

Bien plus qu’une exposition dédiée à la Haute Couture, l’exposition « Iris van Herpen. Sculpting the Senses », constitue un voyage immersif dans cet univers singulier et hybride, ponctué par les recherches et les expérimentations de la créatrice.

Un seul conseil : courez-y !!!

 

VOYAGE COSMIQUE

Iris van Herpen montre, à travers l’exploration du cosmos, combien elle manie l’art de la synthèse, s’inspirant tout autant des dernières découvertes que de l’histoire des arts et des sciences, des cartes anciennes d’Andreas Cellarius que des images du télescope James Webb. Le cosmos et ses mystères entretiennent son imaginaire et avivent sa créativité. Métaphore de son approche holistique, ils incarnent un espace de déploiement sans limites, symbole d’une liberté absolue. Les couleurs flottent, s’animent et offrent de nouveaux horizons pour les corps en lévitation. Appréhender le cosmos, c’est pour elle bouleverser l’ordre des choses et prendre de la hauteur. Le monde devient un tout au-delà de la seule planète Terre. Il ne se développe plus de bas en haut ou de haut en bas mais dans toutes ses dimensions, comme un multivers, sans plus de frontières si ce ne sont celles de l’esprit et de son imaginaire, de l’âme et de ses voyages cosmiques.

This 5-toothed structure, also called a "horn lantern", is the feeding mechanism of a sea urchin used for scraping algae off rocks. It was described and illustrated by the philosopher Aristotle in the 4th century BC. The particular lantern comes from a green sea urchin (Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis).

Remark: Looking northwest, the public school in Chesterton was located on the north side of Indiana Avenue between Second Street and Third Street. The brick structure was built during the fall of 1879 at a cost of about $4,000; it was heavily damaged by fire on November 11, 1924, at 8:00 am, but was rebuilt. Today [2025], the Westchester Public Library stands on this particular site.

The following was published in the September 17, 1884, issue of The Tribune:

 

Work has been commenced on the spire of the Catholic church of this place. The height of this spire when completed, will be 60 feet and on the top of this a cross 13 feet high made of iron, heavily plated with gold will be placed. When completed the entire height of the spire from the ground, will be 135 feet.

The following new item appears in the February 15, 1912, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:

 

Local, Personal, Social

An agitation should be started towards getting the M. E. church site for the public school. The school needs this property badly, and it should be acquired as quickly as possible. The school building cannot be moved, and needs more ground for the children. Get busy and help get sentiment started.

The following new item appears in the August 22, 1912, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:

 

M. E. CHURCH.

Work has begun on the church. The trustees have let the contract for the basement to Mr. Ameling. The building will be raised three feet or more and windows put in the new wall to be constructed. Front and rear entrances will be made. A new furnace, either steam or hot air, will be installed. The church will be painted and papered and placed in neat and tasty order. The basement will afford room for half the Sunday School and an excellent place for socials. The Ladies Aid will have a kitchen and dining room.

The following new item appears in the March 29, 1925, issue of The Chesterton Tribune:

 

CHESTERTON GRADE SCHOOL CONTRACTS ARE ALL LET

Contracts have been let for the completion of the work of rebuilding the Chesterton grade school, which was wrecked by fire on November 11, last. Algot W. Pearson gets the general contract, his bid being $21,993. If the concrete steps are put in on the west entrance he will receive $196 extra. Charles Nickel has the contract for plumbing, heating, ventilating and heat control $3,598.00, making a total of $5,953.00. Harold Bartels gets the electrical contract for $1575.00. These contracts total $31,707.00. the total cost will be about $39,000, which includes costs heretofore spent. Of this amount the insurance company paid $22,000, leaving about $17,000 as the cost to the taxpayers for the loss. For this the township gets a modern building, up to date. The cost would have been about $7,000 les by for the demands of the state board of accounts for safety and health guards included in the plans. The building will be ready for occupancy next fall at the beginning of the new school year.

Dancing Rabbit is located in a county that has no building codes, which gives members a great deal of leeway in deciding what to build. They do have an environmental covenant that disallows lumber, except for reclaimed lumber and locally harvested wood. Many structures utilize clay taken right out of the ground, often combined with hay bale construction.

 

In this particular photo, there's a converted bus dwelling in the foreground (to the left), a single family home in the middle, and a 6 bedroom hay bale building in the background.
