ahhh, beauty materialised

so during my procrastination research
i stumbled upon this

if i was a building, i'd want to be something like this.
is that one of those things that people tell you not to say out loud?
the zollverein school of management and design in essen, germany.
an amazing piece of work by japanese pritzker prize winners SANAA


since just 1995 they have created some beautiful buildings and when i saw this one i was equally gobsmacked by it as with every other creation.

the wonder of it is the simple exterior but then you see it from the inside and those simple cutouts seen on the facade are revealed to be beautiful windows that create a breathtaking light quality inside


i'm a sucker for methodical, geometric designs [within reason of course] and this picture above just encompasses that aesthetic
