Examples of modern exterior with traditional interior
I find it interesting to see what architectures are sub-consciously non-taken-for-granted. Unthinking an Architecture?

Examples of modern exterior with traditional interior
I was wondering if anyone can point me to some specific examples of built works that have a modern exterior or shell with a traditional/historic interior design. Is there anything out there like Villa Savoye on the outside with like Rococo salons and/or Gothic kitchens and/or Turkish baths on the inside? Maybe Barcelona Pavilion on the outside with Greek temple interior? No hurry. Was just suddenly inspired to ask.

Information Architects Talking About Architects and Architecture
Does that perhaps mean that architects have an aversion to being cognitively challenged by virtual worlds?

Information can be designed, and indeed most often actually is designed. FoxNews is a perfect example. Indeed any news broadcast is an example. Even architectural history is designed (in a number of different ways).

Yes, the "unbodied self" isn't even an issue. The unarchitectured architecture is.
How much is the information planned, and how much of the information is designed?
Architects employ a synergistic mix of planning and designing when they do what they do.

Perhaps people who design online user experience actually have more to learn from infamous architects.

It turns out, for my design at least, that text is subtext bilocated.
Since I actually have two design/renovation briefs, the second project will be delivery of content in the enfilade slash labyrinth style via bilocation and the theory of chronosomatics.
Like 18 January 2005, 19 April 2005 was another trilocation day...
...already made provisions in case anyone attending the lecture comes down with trilocation-sickness.
Looks like there's now no denying that there are architects and there are appositional architects.

Reenactionary Architecturism
2. the promenade architecturale documentation because of the reenactment element that permeates the entire "history".

Presently, I like to design delivery of content in the enfilade slash labyrinth style.
Perhaps, someday, I'll design some delivery of content following the architecturale promenade formula.
Actually, I've been struggling with a big design/renovation brief, the solution to which has been eluding me for well over a month now. Alas, today, while just stepping out of the shower, it finally dawned on me--delivery of content in the enfilade slash labyrinth style via bilocation.
Is subtext actually text bilocated?

Wanderlust...
however...
Crossing the Glienicke Bridge (where spies were traded during the Cold War), May 14, 1990, was actually a bit thrilling.

Wanderlust...
Being the only car around driving through the completely unattended 'Iron Curtain' checkpoint between East and West Germany at Erfurt, May 16, 1990, was not only exotic (strikingly unusual or strange in effect or appearance), it was down-right eerie (uncanny, so as to inspire superstitious fear).

Who are the URMs in architecture grad school?
So, maybe, if architecture school wasn't such a pretend thing, the minority would excell and the majority would fail?

From eikongraphia, where pixel should be changed to voxel:
Manhattan Bar Chart, by OMA
Amethyst, by OMA

Michiel van Raaij:
Yes, that is right. The pixelation theme appears In this design for the Science Center…
And in the Gakuen Tower shown in the ‘Content’ Exhibition
And in the entry for the Gazprom competition
And in the Beijing Books Building
That is at least 4 times. Will the next book by Rem be called ‘Pixels’?
Actually, The New High: ODing on Voxels.*

Hey, everything can't be a voxel!

It's interesting that the word 'voxelation' appears within the recently modified MahaNakhon wiki page, but it does not appear in any of the earlier press releases, where the word 'pixelation' is still used.

...make that voxelation.
"...it will have the unconventional appearance of a glass curtain-walled square tower with a voxelated-surface spiral cut into the side of the building."

the similarities of the pictures speak really for themselves...
Voxelation actually does seem to be the right word to describe the formal properties of the architecture in question.
