Is that Terroir's Peppermint Bay Visitor Centre? And a couple of eighties 911s?

I want to know what the hell happens to those mitered wood joints
when the humidity or temp change? If they do what I think they do
it might be a big client problem. Otherwise a sexy ass building!

It's actually concrete - GRC panels.

Those sculpture are Gormley, I think, and that exterior looks dusty enough to be australia...

stumped and sick of the politics... back to architecture!

i looked this weekend before realizing my computer was massively infuckted.

any more clues?

the only inkling of a clue I've gotten that it's somewhere in the Art Gallery of Western Australia, but as far as i've read Gormley's piece is still on site and not indoors. i'm stumped.

I was going to guess the Queensland GOMA, but I can't find proof!

Perhaps an exterior shot is called for ?

Regulars: I sometimes avoid this thread because it takes so long to load - would anyone consider a "Name That Architect and Building Phase II" thread? The first post could link to this original thread...

As for the building above, I have no idea, but I like it.

I wish it were possible to break page [is that like breaking wind ?] at will, to avoid that problem in image-heavy threads.

I'm starting to wonder if this isn't the work of "PhotoShop"....such an
excellent Architecture Firm.

agfa8x was the first to identify the sculptor, and has a guess on the building; i'd say that's good enough for now, at least until diabase comes back from lunch!

Agfa8x...my vote says you are up!

Liberty,
I agree about the problem but I think the solution would be this: add a go to last page button at the top of each page.

Feb 26, 08 12:32 pm  ·

That would help. I only recently discovered the go to bottom of page
button ! But a way to trigger another page would be cool. . .

ha indeed it is. renovated from a two family home into a flower shop and greenhouse. The principal of the firm spoke in a somewhat recent pecha kucha in Italy.

another project by the same firm before I take off:

nice legwork agfa.

their site is among the most ridiculous (or annoying) i've seen for an architecture firm. the second house i posted for a hint is called the "yuppy ranch house". refreshing to see a sense of humor

Yes. That's Mt Eden in the background. The building is a school technology block right beside the motorway.
