― Form and function
" Form follows function; that has been misunderstood. Form and
function should be one, joined in a spiritual union.”
―Frank Lloyd Wright.

Color plays a significant role in perceiving architecture as a whole. The effect that buildings produce on us results from the interaction of all of the senses, and the influence of color cannot be considered a mere decorative addition to an architectural work. It was Theo Van Doesburg, the Dutch painter and one of the inventors of neoplasticism, who said: “Color makes visible the spatial effect towards which architecture tends...Color is an expressive material equivalent to other materials like stone, iron, or glass.” One of the most vivid contemporary champions of the use of bold colors in architecture is British architect and artist Will Alsop.

bellissimi colori e architettura ! Condivido quanto dici Rob, io sono affascinata dall'architettura moderna e dai suoi colori, materiali e forme, vorrà dire qualcosa no ???? ti abbraccio!
cbiiidesigns (3 months ago | reply)
there is a lot here to wrap ones' mind around rob. the geometry and colors play wonderfully with each other. i also like your perspective and the use of the overhanging structure to through things in a tizzy :)

La bella massima di Frank Lloyd Wright.non viene sempre attuata nell'architettura contemporanea...
La tua foto è comunque molto bella.

Fantastically layered geometry... each fighting for its own space, not realizing how good they look with each other... brilliant...

arch forms and clever composition. the tones are unusual and are a real asset to the image. your conceptions are always clever and thoughtful

I can't myself express better than

Even the sky seems to be an architectural form here.
