Architecture – Modern
This is a fifth series of buildings (some as photographed), glass panels, abstract shapes formed from buildings. Most are in London, although they could be any city. I have not named any building, nor have attempted to find Architects or Designers. I have just altered things to my own taste, nothing is sacrosanct, nothing lasts for ever, new ideas quickly become old as will these images be the moment I post them. Please enjoy.

A converted George F. Barber designed "Queen Anne" Victorian, originally built in 1892 by hardware store owner George Roueche in Meadville, PA
This church was a victim of an earthquake some years ago. She nearlly collapsed but for some reasons she wanna gave up. Maybe for protecting the small casket into the altar...
Many thanks for your visit, stars and comments.
I appreciate it very much.

Am 18. März 2010 wurde das neue Grand Canal Theatre in Dublin nach den Plänen von Daniel Libeskind (New York) eröffnet. Das 2.000 Sitzplätze umfassende Gebäude ist Teil einer kompletten Neubebauung am „Grand Canal Square“ in Dublin, die das 13.500 Quadratmeter große Theater sowie zwei Büro- und Geschäftshäuser mit 21.000 und 33.000 Quadratmeter Fläche umfassen. Die Pläne dafür gehen bis auf das Jahr 1992 zurück, mit dem Bau des Theaters wurde allerdings erst im Jahr 2007 begonnen.
Die Gebäude wurden unterschiedlich verkleidet, so hat das Theater unter anderem eine Verkleidung aus Edelstahl, um es von den kommerziellen Nutzungen zu unterscheiden. Eine neue Piazza vor dem Komplex verstehen die Architekten als große öffentliche Lobby, die eine Entsprechung im Inneren des Hauses findet; rote Stäbe markieren den Weg zum Eingang ins Gebäude, die Außenraumplanung stammt von Martha Schwartz.

"Stift Heiligenkreuz", which means the "Abbey of Heiligenkreuz", is a beautiful and living Cistercian monastery, close to Vienna, the capital of Austria. Stift Heiligenkreuz is the second-oldest Cistercian monastery in the world and the oldest continuously active and inhabited one, now full of young vocations. In September 2007 it was blessed by an official visit by Pope Benedict XVI.
Al entrar a la sala se cerraron las puertas todo quedó a oscuras por minutos, tiempo suficiente para descolocarnos por completo porque no sabíamos que ver o hacer en medio de la oscuridad. Eso hasta que prendieron las siluetas de los rostros y todo se iluminó por completo.
Al principio no sabía qué significaba todo esto, pero comprendí que esas personas (dado el contexto histórico) debieron pasar por la misma situación, encerrados, atrapados en un espacio demasiado pequeño, casi sin poder ver. Claro que en caso de ellos debió haber sido peor; solo podían esperar a que pasara lo peor...
One of the ornate Victorians in Ferndale, California.
From Wikipedia:
"Ferndale, sometimes also referred to as "Cream City", is known for well-preserved Victorian store-fronts on main street and homes throughout the community, which are also known as "Butterfat Palaces," due to their construction wherein considerable wealth was generated in the dairy industry. Many of these buildings date from the 1880s. The entire town is registered as California Historical Landmark #883."
