To encourage exploration of various architects and buildings, I will post an image of a new building on a weekly basis, so we may all play "Name that Architect and Building!!!". Sorry to be lame, but I'm sort of tired of hearing how wonderful Rem is or how everyone hates Gehry. Let's get some other guys on the table, instead of regurgitating the same thing. Anyway,
I hope this link works

ahhh then it's obviously Finnish. And if I'm wrong I'll blame in on the fact that I've never visited Finland and the architectural books and monographs have corrupted my viewpoint

Ah I've seen this one, I'm a bit conflicted about it, the detailing and massing is really nice, but I'm not so sure how I feel about how cold the exterior is in relation to it's program...
holz.box
Dec 22, 09 12:16 am
the exterior works, i think, because of the detailing.
if it was an ando-esque finish, it would look really banal.
however, from the interior, it looks to have a fairly limited budget. the juxtaposition doesn't seem to mesh well (let's blow our funds on facade and massing, to hell with the finishes)
we're in france, btw.
