what architecture is...

...a subservient set of criteria that reacts to the stimuli of people, environment, and the ephemeral extents of experience.  It is a system taken for granted by the daily user, yet confined is its collaborators of design, realization and construction.  This limited subset of society makes decisions with the intent of creating better environmental conditions, or at least artistic works of wonder.  Architecture is thus the result, the solution to this massive equation, that is neither positive or negative, but left to live its lifetime as either prospect for the future or just another piece of rumble.

INCEPTION + LEGOS = A fantastic display of beauty

We all at least enjoyed the fantastical imagery of Inception... Well I love LEGOs and this is just blissful for me... found it on gizmodo.com

The-lego-inception-brickbending-photo-trick

simply the best inspiration....

extra cogent is a visual information design office... i stumbled upon this when searching for maps of the pittsburgh T system.... its amazing and i believe it will become a framework on which i can expand upon within the conditions of the northern suburbs.

Scroll down to the section:


Pittsburgh Metro Map

Here's the deal, Pittsburgh doesn't really have a comprehensive subway system. This is a completely fictional piece of work using real townships in Pittburgh. It's a concept piece for the Pittsburgh 2050 project.
