The impressions were originally meant to hold public art works, the city its located in is notorious for its "arts" industry.

I have no idea - looks like R&Sie applied to concrete, or could equally be a one off from the 1970's

okay so here's my selection. I've decided to be a real bastard and crop all the identifiable aspects of it. I'm throwing out the challenge to Holz, diabase, simples, phuyake' and the others.



I'll add a new pic everyday until it's answered. Guesses and hits allowed

I DON'T CHECK IN NEARLY AS OFTEN AS I USED TO, BUT I AM GLAD THIS THREAD IS STILL ALIVE...AS AKIN, I THOUGHT OF WRIGHT, SPECIFICALLY THE Melvyn Maxwell Smith House IN BLOOMFIELD HILLS - BUT IT'S NOT IT...PLAY ON!

Holz, I think you used another view of this house way back in this thread (specifically the cantilever shot..), but either way it's Eric Cobb's Eaton House.

so, i am assuming these are vent structures for a tunnell...beautiful concrete work, but i cna find very little in searches for architectural tunnel vents out there...really intriguing though

Dec 14, 10 6:23 pm  ·

In the sake of keeping the thread going; they are various tunnel vents and stacks designed by Flora Ruchat-Roncati & Renato Salvi

someone else feel free to post one
