And behold, I give unto you, the world, my newest angelic caste: Architectural Renderationists!

- The Almighty

in fact:

First Image Narration:

"Wow..*sigh* this is such impressive architecture. I think i'll stop eating and just stare through the atrium at it."

Second Image Narration:
-The Blessed Couple (lower right)

"Honey?"
"Yes, Snookums?"
"Aren't you glad we get to walk by such a radiant example of why architects really are sired from the forehead of the Diety?"
"Absolutely, Snookums. Its great that every major act of architecture is blessed by the Diety through his right hand Architectatrons."

peridot, your crazy.

I am getting so bored of foster's stuff. When I was first starting out, he was one of my "arch heroes", now I have mixed feelings about all of his projects, maybe its the fact that he's a complete dick to work for. This one, from the renderings at least, looks pretty neat.

im with you apurimac... but i think its more to do with the techy style falling out of favor... its all been done a million times already.

you all are just jealous that you haven't been knighted.

That's Sir Lord Viscount Apurimac to you vado!

Apu - proper use the contraction 'you're', or else I will show you depths of insanity you have not yet plumbed!

oh, too right, my apologies.

Apu, peridot is crazywonderful.

And has fantastic grammar.

As for the Foster: not much to say, but I admitted to a group of students last night that I am finally getting to the point where I can be fooled into thinking a rendering is a photograph. I think in part that's because every photograph we see these days is being manipulated anyway, so that's looking normal or "real".

Oh, sweet Libelle - you many kinds too much.

every video is faked too.... e.g., the moon landing

I confess. I don't really like Foster. I too have been on occasion fooled by the architectural renderationalists.

yeah, foster has bored me with pretty much everything he's done besides the Commerzbank. although hopefully this will get yale's business school back into the top 10. either that or we as a nation should abolish business schools.

turn them all into government schools

What's your favorite Foster project other than the Commerzbank?

apu,
have you worked for F+P?

and, out of curiosity, who are you 'arch heroes' now?

The age of heroes is long past.

Long live the age of the Dollah Menu!

I agree, peridot. We should build more of these:
