Marking the end.
A look back from CurbedLA at the buildings demo'd in the last ten years. Some real treasures lost... | Kazys Varnelis, who seems to have coined the term "ooze" for the 00s, put up a fantastic post (if also marked by his own brand of JayZ-style self-puffing) about the state of architecture today. Mint quote: "Nothing, it seemed, was the most important thing of all." Read

It's not my Ooze! Not sure where I read it first, but it's been around a while.
Funny, in my very small corner of the architecture world, ideology and starchitecture are closely aligned. Of course, I don't design museums, but I did make lots of clients happy in the last decade.
The point I'm making for the students out there, because Kazys and his regular readers and everybody's professors know this, is that the world is bigger than the buildings and accompanying text you see published. We're talking about the same topic over here in the discussions.
