This drawing was initially an attempt at recreating a photograph of a modern styled home I saw in a book. I used the core structure of a few lines drawn in pencil, and overlayed the freehand patterns that were then colored with marker. The coloration is meant to highlight the 4 planes from the original photograph: the house entry; the house's sidewall; the ground; the sky.
This amazing glass couture piece Structures of Self was recently modeled by one of the collaborating artists during the new Beakerhead festival of science, art and engineering. The idea to collaborate on an a photoshoot that paired the alien/bug like garment with the 40 foot RayGun Gothic Rocketship during the setting sun, made for some pretty creative images

A very modern design of stucture atop Moiwayama Observation Deck. Looks like a time machine that travels back and forth the time stream.

Biblioteca Comunale di Sant'agostino is located on Piazza IX in a 15th century building, the former church and convent of the Hermits of St. Augustine (1486) . The structure, which from the architectural point of view is inspired by the late-Gothic Sicilian style. The structure was acquired by the municipal patrimony after the unification of Italy. In 1933 the Church became the seat of the Library to house the archives of the former convents of S. Agostino, S. Domenico and part of the Capuchins. In 1981 the entire building was restored and from 1985 on has been used as a library and multi-purpose hall / Taormina is a comune (municipality) in the Metropolitan City of Messina, on the east coast of the island of Sicily, Italy. Taormina has been a tourist destination since the 19th century. Its beaches on the Ionian sea, including that of Isola Bella, are accessible via an aerial tramway built in 1992. The present town of Taormina occupies the ancient site, on a hill which forms the last projecting point of the mountain ridge that extends along the coast from Cape Pelorus to this point. The site of the old town is about 820 feet above the sea, while a very steep and almost isolated rock, crowned by a Saracen castle, rises about 490 feet higher. This is the likely site of the ancient Arx or citadel, an inaccessible position mentioned by ancient writers. Portions of the ancient walls may be traced at intervals all-round the brow of the hill, the whole of the summit of which was occupied by the ancient city. Numerous fragments of ancient buildings are scattered over its whole surface, including extensive reservoirs of water, sepulchers, tessellated pavements, etc., and the remains of a spacious edifice, commonly called a Naumachia, but the real purpose of which it is difficult to determine. The Ancient Theatre of Taormina is built for the most part of brick, and is therefore probably of Roman date, though the plan and arrangement are in accordance with those of Greek, rather than Roman, theatres; whence it is supposed that the present structure was rebuilt upon the foundations of an older theatre of the Greek period. With a diameter of 358 feet (after an expansion in the 2nd century), this theatre is the second largest of its kind in Sicily (after that of Syracuse); it is frequently used for operatic and theatrical performances and for concerts. The greater part of the original seats have disappeared, but the wall which surrounded the whole seating area is preserved, and the proscenium, of which only traces remain in most ancient theatres, are here preserved in an uncommon state of integrity. From the fragments of architectural decorations still extant we learn that it was of the Corinthian order, and richly ornamented. Some portions of a temple are also visible, converted into the church of San Pancrazio, but the edifice is of small size. Other sights include the 10th century Palazzo Corvaja, a 1635 Baroque fountain, the Church of San Domenico, the Anglican Church of Saint George, and the municipal gardens (Giardini della Villa Comunale).

Dunston Staiths is a wooden structure opened in 1893 to load coal from arriving trains onto waiting ships on the River Tyne a practice that went on into the 1970's. The structure was renovated as part of the 1990 Gateshead Garden Festival. This is said to be the largest wooden structure of such type in Europe and is a Listed Building and a Scheduled Ancient Monument. Sadly some of the locals do not value its iconic status and historical importance and there has been several fires in recent years (2003, 2010 and 2020). A recent grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund of £420,000 hopefully should safeguard the structure for years to come.

Another homework for university. The idea was to create 3 different black and white structures each 20x20. The composition should range from calm to energetic.
Too bad the scrren with its 72ppi can't fully reproduce the thin lines. Maybe someone gets a kick by looking at the moiré ::]
