Location- Nottingham- City Centre
This photography is of a brick wall that shows the use of graffiti work. I particularly like how the graffiti changes the image of the bricks into 3-D and makes them brighter. The texture is rough and lit up by natural light. The location is set in the city centre where lots of the population live therefore brick walls are more likely to have signs of graffiti on them so it will change the walls appearance.
"Beautiful Freak"
You're such a beautiful freak
I wish there were more just like you
You're not like all of the others
And that is why i love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak
That is why i love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak
Some people think you have a problem
But that problem lies only with them
Just 'cause you are not like the others
But that is why i love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak
Yeah that is why i love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak
Too good for this world
But i hope you will stay
And i'll be here to see
That you don't fade away
You're such a beautiful freak
I bet you are flying inside
Dart down and then go for cover
And know that i
I love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak
You know that i
I love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak ~Eels

Dome, è un progetto che vede gli studenti del Laboratorio di Progetto II della Facoltà di Architettura e gli allievi della Scuola Edile di Siracusa impe-gnati a realizzare in scala 1:1 un sistema abitativo low-tech. Archi, volte e cupole in laterizio sono gli elementi costruttivi con cui gli allievi sperimentano le potenzialità d’uso innovativo di materiali e tecnologie della tradizione.
La tecnica adottata si fonda sull’impiego del ‘compasso’, un metodo che l’architetto Fabrizio Caròla impiega da oltre trent’anni in Africa ed in particolare nel Mali. Un metodo desunto dalle ‘antiche tecniche’ co¬struttive nubiane e dalle esperienze dell’architetto egiziano Hassan Fathy.
Questo cantiere didattico-sperimentale è anche un omaggio a Fabrizio Carola, “all’uomo della pietra” come lo chiamano i Dogon del Mali, l’uomo che ci ha mostrato col suo esempio la possibilità di ritrovare un più equilibrato rapporto tra architettura e luogo entro una visione in cui ricerca, formazione e professione non costituiscono più ambiti separati.
Dome is a research project which brings together the Siracusa-based Architectural Design Lab II students and the Building School students with a common goal of constructing a 1:1 low-tech shelter. Brick arches, vaults and domes become a basis for innovative experiments with traditional materials and techniques.
The adopted method is based on the use of a revolving compass - a traditional Nubian technique explored by the Egyptian architect Hassan Fathy and perfected by Fabrizio Caròla in Africa, and in particular in Mali, over a period of more than thirty years.
This experimental building site is also a homage to Fabrizio Carola - “the stone man” as the Mali Dogon call him – whose work demonstrates a possible return to a balanced relationship between architecture and its environment in a context in which research, academic and professional domains no longer constitute separate domains.

Manchester United Methodist Church was looking for a replacement window after the old wood windows deteriorated for the past decade. Glass block was the perfect choice to withstand the elements of an Ohio winter. The church wanted to find a window that was durable but also spectacular and the colored block in the shape of a cross achieved the church's goal. Glass Block of America was able to remove the wood sills and replace with a new sandstone sill.
