Depuis quelques années la Library of Congress met à la disposition de tous(tes) une sélection de sa librarie photographique sur flickr. Les collections Photochrom Travel Views et 1930′s-40′s in color sont particulièrement intéressantes.

This picture of Prada’s 2009 lookbook is just mesmerizing.

WKK Energy Plant > Utrecht, Netherlands
Where else but in the Netherlands can a power plant become a landscape sculpture.
To increase the capacity of two existing power stations on the Uithof in Utrecht, a new building (6000m3) appeared. The size and construction of the building are largely determined by the technical requirements. A skin of self-supporting Cor-ten steel is folded over the machinery and the giant filters and dampers and keeps the noise pollution to a minimum. Its silhouette differs according to one’s perspective, lending the building a sculptural force in the landscape.




So then. and now. So Montreal



The Canadian Pulp and Paper pavilion. 1967. obviously.
It’s sad to think that pretty much all of the architecture of the expos 67 in now either in ruin, destroyed or a casino.
