it might be denial, but here is one last shot at ressurecting this thread:

another photo of the latest project/challenge:

not a clue. i like it though

yeah, this thread needs some tailwind

i've no idea but it's what i imagine andy goldsworthy and fay jones would end up with if they were to work together.

a few people on archinect should've recognized instantly...i though it would've been an easy one...ok, it's in a campus...here is a hint:

aml...i really really like andy goldsworthy's work, and on a thread i started a while ago about richard serra, art/architecture, i tried to link andy's work with architecture and leave it up to debate...have you watched this documentary on his (amazing) process?...i definitely recommend it:

one last hint...

buggered if i know!

Above:
The Cranbrook Academy of Art Library

Eliel Saarinen

but who designed the bridge?

Cranbrook Woodward Avenue Trellis Bridge
Dan Hoffman

Come on guys!? It takes me, someone living 20 hours ahead and thousands of kilometres away to get this one....

Slackers.

Now, get on with it.

I cheated and looked that one up db, so I won't say. But's its cool. Looks like one of Eileen Grey's dressing screens.

Ok - shall I name my one> Or is someone going to come to the rescue.
A clue - the architect is italian

[bump]
diabase...i am really intrigued by that building...yet, even with your clue, i can not find more info on it...any more clues?
[/bump]

archea associati...Nembro Municipal Library in Bergamo...

in an effort to keep this thread going, here is a project by a not so obscure architect...
(achtung: image path reveals architect's name...DO NOT CHEAT!)

university of michigan biomedical building
polshek

and i didn't look at the image link

post another one Lars.

no looking at the link either.

Snohetta


Lillehamer museum of something or other in Norway . .


this is the best thread ever

I was just looking at Snohetta in a Taschen book, so I finally, finally recognized something on this thread. It's the Lillehammer Olympic Art Museum, completed for the 1994 Olympics. I see from a google search that the photos are better on Cristoph Kapeller's website.

I only vaguely remember this from the Olympics....

Okay, misterTT beat me to it, but here's one, anyway. I think a couple of people here will figure it out in five seconds, especially if I added a site plan.

Hi snjr! You haven't been around much recently, or am I wrong? Welcome back!


Uh, I don't know your building....

Hi, lb--thanks, it's nice to be back. I've been out of the country since June, but if I tell you where I was, I'll be giving the location of this building away :)

are they in india?

Yup. Here's a reflected ceiling plan:

that's charles correa. can't remember the name of the building, but it is academic, no? it's one of his "mandela" buildings.

Here's mine:



liberty bell should be familiar with this one

also, i'd say the above cranbrook pictures are more dan hoffman than saarinen...

at least the bridge/entry ones

Paulo Soleri Studio....in Scottsdale Arizona.

I wish I was better at this game.

finally when I see one that I know I miss the opportunity to name it - bah!

This relatively new building is more known for its atrium:

so sorry arch...

le b--it's the JKK, the Jawahar Kala Kendra, in Jaipur. I knew if I added any sort of plan, it would give it away.

No idea, diabase.

I'll post another clue before I leave work...

is that's its final constructed form? Its really alluring if it is.

yes - that is the final form

The location is the birthplace of Leo Africanus
The atrium featured on a cover of AR

diabase - thats that bank headquarters by campo de baeza, in Granada. jah! i finally get one!

Nice one p2an.
Here is the atrium, with massive columns:

Here another one:

Sorry,

thats cool seen it before, but no idea who did it. printed facade of the old dwelling that use to be there. in oz or nz.
very cool.

ok, got it.
Jackson Clements Burrows Architects in Melbourne.
google is not bad if you know enough clues
i googled "modern architecture printed facade old house australia"
and it was the first in the list. (which is that blog that you got it from)

now i better think of a good one.

What?!? How did I miss the Cranbrook shots? I actually helped build that trellis bridge with my own hands!!!!

And snooker beat me to the Soleri. Sigh.....

Oh well - even if I don't win at guessing, I'm winning by looking! More please!

this ones a beauty

muf architects: Museum for Roman mosaics, St. Albans

I'm back in the game!
