Great inspirations few nights ago at this very special opening at the Front gallery @the_front_hd thanks to @hervedaridan. Was happy to discover hand drawings from French visionary architect Claude Parent, master of oblique angle buildings starting in the mid 50’s who broke from modernism and its orthogonal vocabulary and influenced regarded architects including Frank Gehry, Rem Koolhaas, Zaha Hadid, Odile Decq and many more.. Up till October 22nd - check last image with address info etc. #ldwandcoinspirationforlife #lafonctionoblique #notafraidofangles #pre-digitalarchitecture- Friday inspiration - Great lecture last night on Julia Morgan‘s life and architectural work by the author of that great book. Julia M was another smart and brilliant woman, a pioneer of American Architecture in the late 19th to mid 20th century with a humongous body of work mostly in California. I had the chance last year to visit the Asylomar Conference Grounds she designed and built in Monterey- one of my favorite buildings of hers. #ldwandcoinspirationforlife #anothergrandedame✨
