I felt some excitement at a long overdue first trip to Barcelona to see the works of Antoni Gaudí and the other architects associated with the Modern Movement in Barcelona. As an architectural student in Dublin there was little exposure to this movement. True, we had the example of Michael Scott and Busáras (the Central Bus Station) and the architects own house at Sandycove but these were post-war and isolated and we knew little of the Irish designer who was at the very vanguard of the Modern Movement, Eileen Gray and the wonderful E1027 at Roquebrune in the South of France (<a href="http://daithaic.blogspot.com/2008/09/e-1027-roquebrune-cap-martin.html">http://daithaic.blogspot.com/2008/09/e-1027-roquebrune-cap-martin.html</a> ). Instead we tended to associate the movement with disciples of Berthold Lubetkin and Tecton in England who were at the more brutalist end of the International Movement. So seeing the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh and the Glasgow School (<a href="http://daithaic.blogspot.com/2008/07/charles-rennie-mackintosh.html">http://daithaic.blogspot.com/2008/07/charles-rennie-mackintosh.html</a> ) emphasised both how far adrift Ire... http://buildings.multiply.com/journal/item/69/69 Mon, 24 Nov 2008 23:01:07 -0000 Jugendstil Bridge at Nussdorf in Vienna, Austria http://buildings.multiply.com/photos/album/155/Jugendstil_Bridge_at_Nussdorf_in_Vienna_Austria Tue, 18 Nov 2008 20:25:13 -0000 photo or 3DsMAX? <a href="http://revitpilipinas.multiply.com/photos/hi-res/upload/SSKAKAoKCqYAAG43Dfk1"><a href="http://revitpilipinas.multiply.com/photos/hi-res/upload/SSKAqwoKCqYAAHHveZI1"><img class="alignmiddleb" src="http://images.revitpilipinas.multiply.com/image/1/photos/upload/300x300/SSKAqwoKCqYAAHHveZI1/Challenge-Systems-2.JPG?et=sbtwnVXgrAT61qJJ50s%2B%2CQ&nmid=0" border="0"></a></a><a href="http://revitpilipinas.multiply.com/photos/hi-res/upload/SSKAKAoKCqYAAG43Dfk1"><img class="alignmiddleb" src="http://images.revitpilipinas.multiply.com/image/1/photos/upload/300x300/SSKAKAoKCqYAAG43Dfk1/Challenge-Systems-Inc.JPG?et=gnZThCppeNPU3kJlWEn%2Crg&nmid=0" border="0"></a>3DsMAX or Photo? vote now!!! http://revitpilipinas.multiply.com/journal/item/73/Photo_or_3DsMAX http://buildings.multiply.com/journal/item/68/photo_or_3DsMAX Tue, 18 Nov 2008 08:42:00 -0000 Sagrada Familia, Barcelona The Temple Expiatori de la Sagrada Familia or simply Sagrada Familia, Antoni Gaudí's unfinished masterpiece, is one of Barcelona's most popular tourist attractions. Construction on this church will continue at least until 2014, but it has already become Barcelona's most important landmark. Gaudí devoted more than 40 years of his life to this great and still unfinished masterpiece, in fact he dedicated the last 12 years of his life exclusively to it from 1914 – 1926 declining any other work he was offered. He even moved within the precincts of the church to devote himself to this project. Funded by private donations the church you see today transcends Gaudí representing the separate identity of Catalonia and the many people, craftsmen, designers and architects and in this is far more a medieval building in character representing the will of the people to rise above the mundainity of their surroundings and build a breathtaking expression of their belief. Indeed in its abstraction (for a... http://buildings.multiply.com/journal/item/67/Sagrada_Familia_Barcelona Sun, 16 Nov 2008 22:45:05 -0000 2008.11.13 What is your idea of a perfect Christmas? <img class="alignmiddleb" src="http://images.philxprez.multiply.com/image/1/photos/upload/300x300/SRxcUgoKCjsAABxXT5s1/xmas3.gif?et=8jT9v8RqnIJpwIYfbxY4mg&nmid=0" border="0">Oh well, Christmas is in the offing. In fact, we are more than a halfway thru the 100-day countdown of Christmas Day. The two giant networks in the Philippines never fail to remind their viewers at the end of their prime time newscasts:  "42 araw na lang, Pasko na!" (as of this writing). With the world financial crisis hanging like the Sword of Damocles, bringing us to economic "slow down" (yes, Santa Dear, not one financial mogul nor any government economic manager in the local scene does admit of a recession, well, for now), I would jest around asking friends and associates:  "Matutuloy ba ang Pasko?" ("Will Christmas push thru [as scheduled]?) I would either just receive a blank stare or some quizzical eyebrows from them, as if I were an alien or a ghost from their Christmas past. That, of course, does not prevent me from shooting another question: what if the President decides to transfer Christmas Day to another date--much later perhaps (read as: next year), as she is pro... http://buildings.multiply.com/journal/item/66/2008.11.13_What_is_your_idea_of_a_perfect_Christmas Thu, 13 Nov 2008 17:47:38 -0000 anyone interested? hi everyone,<img src="http://images.multiply.com/common/smiles/wink.png"> we're planning to conduct a FREE basic tutorial / seminar for AEC and M&E softwares around next year. could be your professional org, university org, university event, fraternity, your office team, your graduating class batch, let us know and please spread the word. this poll will run till the end of december 2008, to convince the "big boss" we'll need to have a significant vote count for us to offer the FREE tutorials. the software with the highest vote request will be offered first, and ofcourse we'll provide certificates IF you succesfully compete the exercises :) cheers, <img src="http://images.multiply.com/common/smiles/smile.png"> vote now! http://revitpilipinas1.multiply.com/journal/item/11/FREE_Basic_Training_Anyone http://buildings.multiply.com/journal/item/65/anyone_interested Wed, 12 Nov 2008 01:58:00 -0000 Kinderdijk windmill The Dutch village at Kinderdijk http://buildings.multiply.com/photos/album/154/Kinderdijk_windmill Sun, 9 Nov 2008 09:40:11 -0000 Osie's Site - Agnes Arellano sculpture at Busan Biennale 2006 Park in South Korea a Filipino Artwork in South http://buildings.multiply.com/links/item/40/Osies_Site_-_Agnes_Arellano_sculpture_at_Busan_Biennale_2006_Park_in_South_Korea Thu, 6 Nov 2008 07:21:54 -0000 WALT DISNEY CONCERT HALL - LOS ANGELES, CA., USA.

Original this was known as Hoggen Green deriving its name from the Scandinavian word for mound and the nearby nunnery of Blessed Virgin Mary del Hogges founded in 1156. Nearby was the Thingmote, which was the Viking assembly place. It was renamed College Green after Trinity College in the 1600s.   The Irish Houses of Parliament (Irish: Tithe na Parlaiminte, also known as the Irish Parliament House, today called the Bank of Ireland, College Green due to its modern day use as a branch of the bank) is the world's first purpose-built two-chamber parliament house. It served as the seat of both chambers ... http://buildings.multiply.com/journal/item/63/Irish_Parliament_Building Sun, 12 Oct 2008 22:56:57 -0000 Doha (Qatar) Some of the Photos i've taken during my two years stay at Qatar.
