yup. i figured it'd have to be an east coaster who got that one.
A little Brian Healy story;
When I was in high school I was introduced to him by a mutual acquaintance, and he had me over for diner at his own personal beach house which happened to be in my hometown. I was sort of on the fence about architecture as the college application process started, but after hearing him speak about I was sold. I definitely credit him for inspiring me to pursue architecture. Great guy, but no response when I tried to apply with him after graduating.
he is a good guy...i used to know two guys that worked
for him...and i've followed his work pretty closely. he was also
on a jury for the rotch competition which i was a finalist on...
Church of the Autostrada is in Complexity and Contradiction...
...here's a competition entry from 1971, prototype for an Esso Filling Station (obviously). Curious if anyone knows the architect. Otherwise, just want more people to know the project.
on a recent flight i watched the "blades of glory" movie with will ferrell & jon heder as a male figure skating pair and the movie actually included the habitat project from the 67 world's fair...or something like that
ok before i leave for the day I'll leave this hint since there's no takers yet:
the building and architects are located in the same city, which rhymes with Shmienna, in a country that rhymes with Baustria
After trying all night to figure out the identity of Viennese building and also being side-swiped by pixel blur building, architects collape from exhaustion.
Quick, call ARUP for unprecedented structural solution!
ok i'll cave since no one got it yet.
It's Henke + Schreieck Architekten, the "Vienna Loft" apartment building. I'll have to look the date up but I believe it to be late 80's - early 90's. They're more well known for their K-47 office building in the heart of the city:
phuyaka..even knowing the firm's name i still can't find pics of that building...although i do remember it from a book i had on 'contemporary european architecture' that i got in 94 or so.
i know it's in brasilia...i know it's part of the congress buildings (or right next to)...in between the congress and the justice palace...so i could guess say it's niemeyer, but i'd think it's a trap...but it's in brazilia for sure (i remember seeing it in pictures)

you're up Lars
he is a good guy...i used to know two guys that worked
for him...and i've followed his work pretty closely. he was also
on a jury for the rotch competition which i was a finalist on...
his models and drawings are really nice..
coworker's suggestion
Michelucci, Church of the Autostrada, near Florence
yeppers...
Church of the Autostrada is in Complexity and Contradiction...
...here's a competition entry from 1971, prototype for an Esso Filling Station (obviously). Curious if anyone knows the architect. Otherwise, just want more people to know the project.
Archizoom (Andrea Branzi) - Esso gas station
sorry, but I think you got the right nationality though.
superstudio
sorry again. The architect did have a 1970s a+u devoted to his work, but seems to have faded into obscurity since then. Tafuri notes this work.
Feo+Aggarbati+Saggioro+Vigni (via Tafuri) Not getting it right the first time is embarassing though...
Bravo!
images above from a+u 77:02 focus: Vittorio De Feo
ok, my turn. Let's stay in the mediterranean...
right-click won't work on this one!
Miguel Fisac, Jorba Laboratories, Madrid, 1965-67.
Guess what, this is another on the Transformations. I told you that book was good.
hats off!
ok, something much newer...
...and I assume as yet unexecuted.
from the phantasmagorical scale I would almost guess BIG but somehow it doesn't look right...
so very close
JDS - logistic city
correct!
the "so very close" tipped me off, I hadn't seen that project yet. why did Plot split again?
here's one:
I'm still trying to figure out why WHAM! split up.
on a recent flight i watched the "blades of glory" movie with will ferrell & jon heder as a male figure skating pair and the movie actually included the habitat project from the 67 world's fair...or something like that
this thread reminds me of that movie
ok before i leave for the day I'll leave this hint since there's no takers yet:
the building and architects are located in the same city, which rhymes with Shmienna, in a country that rhymes with Baustria
sorry I was away, I'll search for a good entry.
whose this??

phuyaka, post another building if you don't mind.
phuyaka..even knowing the firm's name i still can't find pics of that building...although i do remember it from a book i had on 'contemporary european architecture' that i got in 94 or so.
of course that was before i looked on the 'images' side of google...
yeah, another one pleaes...but something scandinavian this time
puddles you missed my norwegian one...
no one making a bid at mine? Pity
check this....is this really built, looks like a model, really good one
supernal: I was going to guess that your image of the women on the floor was an Oliver Herring performance art piece.... until I read your caption!
techno: It looks like a Steven Holl project...
not quite this: Zuidas Housing
i'm guessing it's a neutelings riedijk, but i can't find it anywhere in their portfolio.
nope!

its in South America
time for hint numero dos
no ones gotten it so far, its been a few days? want to just tell us architechnophilia and post a new one?
i know it's in brasilia...i know it's part of the congress buildings (or right next to)...in between the congress and the justice palace...so i could guess say it's niemeyer, but i'd think it's a trap...but it's in brazilia for sure (i remember seeing it in pictures)
Anexo-IV of the Camara dos Deputados (house of representatives)em Brasilia...architect:João Filgueiras Lima with Niemeyer (exiled in France)
