Life has never been easy for miners, but conditions were especially bad in the 1800s. Hasard colliery’s first strike occurred in September of 1875. There were no unions to support the workers and, despite significant increases in profits, their wages had been cut by ten percent. A small group of men refused to go down the mine after hearing this news, and their protest quickly snowballed into a movement that armed themselves with guns and demanded that their bosses improve working conditions. This action was met with a heavy-handed response from police and public prosecutors who were backed up with cavalry and a whole infantry battalion that eventually crushed the rebellion. Whilst the strike may have failed, it did lay the groundwork for future union action and made the mine’s owners wake up to the fact that their workers tolerance for human rights infringements was limited.
modern block on what used to be the site of the old Royal Infirmary, now the Quartermile, a mix of old Victorian hospital buildings totally renovated and re-used and modern structures like this one.
Mostly offices, although at the back end it has one of those gym where they add to your embarrassment by having the running machines up against these big, plate glass windows so everyone walking past can see you (why, why, why would anyone want to exercise like that? Why would the gym do that to their clients??? Especially with a school nearby, loads of kids walking past, who wants that when sweating on a treadmill, kids pointing in at you? People pay for that???)

As one can see from the first shot, this complex is made up of two structures with, say, organic floorplans. One building with green-glass sunscreens as vertical louvers, and the other with different shades of red. They go together, as complimentary colors ought to, perfectly. Both structures are organized around oval courtyards which, as nice as it is for the lighting of the structures, are kind of boring.
There, I said it.
I'll try to post a shot from within one which doesn't totally support my opinion, but it will be difficult. Once the trees in the courtyards have grown a bit, it will be better, but a building shouldn't have to rely on plantings to make it more humane. I am not asking for a really exciting space which attracts all kinds of attention, as this is an office complex and not a public space surrounded by shops and cafe´s, but I am looking for a place where people would feel more comfortable if they were there longer. Maybe even make them want to be there longer!
All of the glass fins are moveable and can open and close....I am just not sure who controls that (user or computer).
Random office building in the local shopping center. I think there are some doctors and a real estate company in there.

“Nos projetos que desenvolvemos para clínicas e consultórios, procuramos conciliar a vontade do cliente com a nossa proposta de trabalho. Assim, os diplomas e certificados nem sempre fazem parte da decoração; ou quando fazem, procuramos projetar uma diagramação adequada para a parede em que estes diplomas estarão dispostos”, observa Ana Paula Perez.
