The free standing drawing is mounted on luan and then constructed in a set like manner. Its purpose is not to be a sculpture, which would imply illusion, but rather to exist simply as a surface.

Corfe Castle is situated in Dorset UK. It stands above the village of the same name. The castle dates back to the 11th century, and commands a gap in the Purbeck Hills on the route between Wareham and Swanage. The oldest surviving structure on the castle site dates to the 11th century, although evidence exists of some form of stronghold predating the Norman Conquest. Edward the Martyr was assassinated at the site on 18 March 978. Construction of a stone hall and inner bailey wall occurred in the 11th century and extensive construction of other towers, halls and walls occurred during the reigns of Henry I, John and Henry III. By the 13th century the castle was being used as a royal treasure storehouse and prison. Refortified in 1202–1204, the west bailey at Corfe Castle resembles the bailey of Château Gaillard, built by Richard the Lionheart in 1198. The castle remained a royal fortress until sold by Elizabeth I in the 16th century to her Lord Chancellor, Sir Christopher Hatton. The castle was bought by Sir John Bankes, Attorney General to Charles I, in 1635. During the English Civil War, the castle twice came under siege by Parliamentarians. Sir John Bankes was away from his estate attending to Charles I so defence of the castle was led by his wife Lady Bankes. The first siege, in 1643, lasted for six weeks before the Parliamentarians withdrew with the loss of 100 men. The second siege, in 1646, was resisted for two months before the castle was betrayed by a member of the garrison. After its capture, the castle was slighted with some explosives the effectiveness of which can be seen in the castle state today. In the centuries that followed, the local populace took advantage of this easy source of building material and masonry; door frames and other items originally from the castle can be seen in nearby properties. After the restoration of the monarchy in 1660, the Bankes family regained their properties. Rather than rebuild or replace the ruined castle they chose to build a new house at Kingston Lacy on their other Dorset estate near Wimborne Minster. Both properties are now open to the public, by the National Trust.

The Shriver is another of the queenpost structures located in the open countryside of Greene County. It is covered with random-width unpainted vertical board siding on both sides and portals, has a sheet metal roof and a deck of crosswise planking. Fairly wide length-wise openings immediately under the eaves are the only side opening on the bridge. The Shriver is reinforced with steel I beams and rests on cut stone abutments that appear to have been laid dry and has wingwalls of similar material that extends a little above the road level.

The first structures to be built at 1401 Pennsylvania Avenue NW were six small houses constructed by Colonel John Tayloe III in 1816. Tayloe leased the six buildings to Joshua Tennison, who named them Tennison's Hotel. The structures served as a hotel for the next three decades, the leaseholder and name changing several times: Williamson's Mansion Hotel, Fullers American House, and the City Hotel. By 1847, the structures were in disrepair and Tayloe's son, Benjamin Ogle Tayloe, was desperate to find a tenant who would maintain the structures and run them profitably. The Willard Hotel was formally founded by Henry Willard when he leased the six buildings in 1847, combined them into a single structure, and enlarged it into a four-story hotel he renamed the Willard Hotel. Willard purchased the hotel property from Ogle Tayloe in 1864, but a dispute over the purchase price and the form of payment (paper currency or gold coin) led to a major equity lawsuit which ended up in the U.S. Supreme Court. The Supreme Court ruled that the purchase price would remain the same, but Willard must pay in gold coin (which had not depreciated in value the way paper currency had). The Willard family sold its share of the hotel in 1946, and due to mismanagement and the severe decline of the area, the hotel closed without a prior announcement on July 16, 1968. The building sat vacant for years, and numerous plans were floated for its demolition. It eventually fell into a semi-public receivership and was sold to the Pennsylvania Avenue Development Corporation. They held a competition to rehabilitate the property and ultimately awarded it to the Oliver Carr Company and Golding Associates. The two partners then brought in the InterContinental Hotels Group to be a part owner and operator of the hotel. The Willard was subsequently restored to its turn-of-the-century elegance and an office-building contingent was added. The hotel was re-opened on August 20, 1986. In the late 1990s, the hotel once again underwent significant restoration. 1401 Pennsylvania Avenue NW, Washington, D.C. 18 April 2021

Fairfield Fire battles a well involve garage fire the badly damaged the structure as well as destroyed 2 cars which were stored there. The crews arrived to find heavy smoke and fire but were initially hampered by the fact that a large quanity of live ammunition which was also store in the gargae was going off. They were forced to take up and exterior and defensive attack until all the ammo was detonated.
2) Pair softer / flowy / clingy pieces with structured ones (the black dress being clingy and the jacket and jeans very structured).
3) I look good in COLOR (my mom has been trying to tell me for time eternal that I look best in jewel tones).
exterior structure.
parliament buildings
i enjoyed our visit to the Scottish parliament. i must say, more than i expected. it was clear from the outset that Enric Miralles the Spanish architect who sadly died before its completion had to some degree been influenced by Gaudi. although the forms in the structure were not as organic the flamboyance is undeniably present. my personal opinion is that the exterior and interior stand as a final statement to a great architect.
