Location: 449 South Winchester Blvd., San Jose, CA
Positioned in front of the Century dome theaters and down the street from the Winchester Mystery House, Bob’s Big Boy served up burgers and shakes from the mid-1960s to the late 1980s. The Bob’s building, with its rock pillars and convex roofline, was designed by the Los Angeles based architectural firm, Armet and Davis, and is a prime example of “Coffee Shop Modern.” Fortunately, when the folks at Flames took over from Bob, they did little to alter the building’s exterior. Today, Flames Coffee Shop on Winchester Blvd. looks much like its predecessor, although one thing you’ll notice is that the original sign’s characteristic spike has been shortened.

I shot this back in 2011 and came across it by complete accident at the time. I've driven around twice now looking for it, never found it again. Half of the parking lot was flooded which you can see in the next shot. I'd love to see more buildings like this in my city."

Architects;Anna Heringer & Eike Roswag. 2005-06.
Vernacular and craft-based design.
"The utilisation of local materials and skills has been key to
Anna Heringer and Eike Roswag's design for the Meti School in
Rudrapur, Bangladesh, built in 2005. The building was designed for the
Bangladeshi NGO, Dipshika, who look to reduce migration to cities by
improving village life through providing better facilities and
employment opportunities. The school was designed to promote creative,
student-centred learning and its construction was aimed at using local
knowledge and providing jobs for the villagers. The architects refined
the vernacular building technique of using wet loam and straw by
adding a damp proof course and brick foundations, whilst an upper
storey was built using bamboo construction. Heringer and Roswag
organised the construction of the school over a period of four months
with only the foundation being built by a commercial company. The rest
of the building was constructed by hand by local builders who were
trained by specialists from Germany and with the help of architecture
students from Bangladesh and Austria."

In 1783, the town council of Dinant in Belgium moved into this former palace of the prince-bishop of Liege. It was destroyed by fire in 1914 but was beautifully reconstructed in its original state after the war.
Similar to another photo I uploaded. This is a photo of the postman (postie) at Mount Dandenong Garage, in Mount Dandenong, Victoria, Australia.
This was photographed using a 1990s camera called the Vivitar ECO35H, a fixed-focus, single aperture, single shutter speed camera with a plastic lens (and which still works after over 20 years, which is pretty good for such a cheap basic "throwaway" camera). The film used is Ilford HP5 Plus 400, a wonderful film.

Ronald McDonald House, Valkenburg, Netherlands, NL / Friedensreich Hundertwasser / 2006 – 2007
This is a house designed for the families of children with handicaps and serious medical conditions for the Foundation Stichting Ronald McDonald Kindervallei, Valkenburg aan de Geul, Netherlands. Executing architect: Heinz M. Springmann
Dates: design 2004, Start of construction: May 2006 Inauguration: September 2007
After the Ronald McDonald House that Hundertwasser designed for the German city of Essen was so well received, the Ronald McDonald Kinderfonds in De Bilt NL approached the Hundertwasser Foundation in Vienna, asking whether it would also be possible to have a house designed according to Hundertwasser's principles, for the families of children with handicaps and serious medical conditions, in the south of the Netherlands. The New Zealand Spiral Monument, designed by Hundertwasser in 1987/88 and planned by architect Peter Pelikan was used as a model for this project. The Rainbow Spiral of Valkenburg is the only Hundertwasser architectural project in the Netherlands.
