Sólo Palabras. Facto de la Fé y las Flores Azules.

...contemplad a las flores que las flores bailan...

Hoy me acordaba de este verso, mientras las flores de invierno me dejaban atisbar la primavera que no tardará. Como vuela el tiempo!

Wild is the Wind. Bowie.

Love me, love me, love me, say you do
Let me fly away with you
For my love is like the wind, and wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
Give me more than one caress, satisfy this hungriness
Let the wind blow through your heart
For wild is the wind, wild is the wind

You touch me,
I hear the sound of mandolins
You kiss me
With your kiss my life begins
You're spring to me, all things to me
Don't you know, you're life itself!

Religions are not revealed: they are evolved. If a religion were revealed by God, that religion would be perfect in whole and in part, and would be as perfect at the first moment of its revelation as after ten thousand years of practice. There has never been a religion that which fulfills those conditions.

Robert Blatchford, author (1851-1943)

Green New York Tower. Por Daniel Libeskind.

...the latest towering building planned to grace the new york city skyline is one madison avenue by architect daniel libeskind. the 54-story condo building stands out from the crowd of glass towers by incorporating a series of ‘sky gardens’ at different parts of the building. the green spaces would be enclosed in cylindrical glass tubes at the centre of the building and cut-aways in the face would open them up to the outside. the openings also provide the condominiums in that part of the tower with balconies...

Curiosamente lo que más me gusta es su caracter parásito. Crece sobre la cubierta de un edificio existente, levantandose sobre él, extraño y audaz, pero no ajeno...

Puma City. Por LOT-EK

...Twenty-four shipping containers are retrofitted and transformed into PUMA CITY, a transportable retail and event building that is traveling around the world along with the 70-foot long Puma sailing boat – il Mostro - during the one-year long 2008 Volvo Ocean Race, just started in Alicante, Spain in early October...
...The building is fully dismountable and travels on a cargo ship along with the sail boats; it will be assembled and disassembled a number of times once it reaches the different international harbors...
...uses 40-foot long shipping containers as well as a number of the existing container connectors to join and secure containers both horizontally and vertically. Each module is designed to ship as conventional cargo container through a system of structural covering panels that fully seals all of its large openings to be removed on site to re-connect the large, open interior spaces...

Piscina Valdesinchuela. Valdemoro. Madrid. Por Alberto Nicolau.

...este temporal de estructuras, aire y luz desaparece en el plano del agua, cuya serena horizontalidad se desliza suavemente hacia el exterior por unas marcadas ventanas corridas que ligan el paisaje ajardinado con el temperado interior...

...el “menos es más” miesiano, releído con el “más con menos” de Campo Baeza, la resolución sensible de la técnica que seguro aprendió de Foster, la libertad formal que vivó en Soriano y el rigor de Moneo, marcan el primer trabajo a gran escala que construye Nicolau...

Hurt. Por Johnny Cash.

"...yo soy aquello que amo, no soy aquello que me ama... eso es algo que comprendí hace tiempo..."

Universidad Bocconi. Milán.

...we thought about the research offices as beams of space, suspended to form a grand canopy which filters light to all levels. The offices form an inhabited roofscape. This floating canopy allows the space of the city to overlap with the life of the university. Allows internal and external public spaces to merge...
