i imagine the process of manufacturing the bronze fin balustrade...
The site phase of the project opened with the draining of the lake for long-planned remedial work to the banks. In January 2006, work began on the piled foundations which carry the bridge's steel superstructure. Meanwhile the various components of the crossing were fabricated. The bronze fins which form the crossing's balustrades were extruded in the north of England and the black granite deck treads cut and polished. In a third location, the sweeping curves of the steel superstructure took shape - in two continuous sections which were subsequently sliced into 8-metre lengths for transportation.
nice cantilever. i kind of like it, but i'd like it better if some of the elements were pared down a bit. it feels like it's flexing a little too much.
good to see this thread get a nice spurt!
sdr, love rudolph's drawings, and lautner is great. if you're in l.a. this summer, there is an exhibit on lautner @ the hammer museum from july to october.
blackharp, comes through with an answer, but dude, these guys are pros, ya gotta stump 'em! =)
wow this firm blew up over night (night being east coast time), holz is that in your region? i was tempted to say miller hull for some reason but the nyc connection scratches that.
Isn't that the prison by the Rijksgebouwendienst themselves (I cannot think of the name of the guy in charge, Remco something something), in Alphen aan de Rijn (NL)?
Since I am 99% sure, and the Erick van Egeraat building makes for the remaining 1%, I'm going to post a new one in a sec.
Name that Architect and Building!!!
a toss up on a somewhat interesting but cold and overpriced house, which finally sold a year or so ago...

haha ahhhh.. here i was looking for maize architects. e. cobb architects - eaton residence
ha ha ha, phuyake, i was thinking a variation on maize (mays, maze, maize) too!
how about another cantilever:
i have seen this projecta lot in the last few months. the ando-esque picture on the bottom belies the structural tenacity of the rest of the house.
Love cantilevers. That one is pretty hard to believe. . .!
i think it's austrian... hertl?

there are definitely some structural gymnastics going on here, the cantilever extends 8m
good guess holz, but it's a bit more... Iberian.
after this one i think a cantilever thread should be started... although I have a feint memory of there being one awhile back.
SDR.... jenga!
