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

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!
any hints architechnophilia?
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)
shows the building in relation to a more recognizable building in brasilia
nice job simples!
techno..great find! it's tough to post an image of brasilia and not have people recognize it...i almost didn't either...
