Here is the type of home I would like for myself someday...
I want a home built from one of those old nukular missle tubes, although i don't want to move to some flat hell hole in the midwest to get one.N8 said:

You can move down near Austin, Tx for one of those too...
No thanks.N8 said:

Could be but at least it is painted or finished with something.
At first glance, I thought that was collapsed building wreckage... Definitely... interesting... Probably something that will look better in person.pixelninja said:Here's a photo of where its at right now:

Besides the 80's are back again.

The guy that sits next to me says it looks like a plane crash. I drove by it on Sunday, and it definitely does NOT look better in person.Ian F said:At first glance, I thought that was collapsed building wreckage... Definitely... interesting... Probably something that will look better in person.
Both my wife and I wondered the same thing: Where the heck are they going to hang the artwork????
This seems like a definite a case of form over function, but I'll reserve final judgment until its finished.
stosh, you would deff like yale. Both of Louis Kahn's buildings are right next to each other, and there are some really good other buildings in New Haven, like the fire station and the Lions Club building. (its somthing like that i think). The colesuem is also some what interesting structuarlly. Ive been the the building at exeter, and its pretty nice, but not as cool as the one in new haven.
N8, your taste for interior desing sucks. Sorry, but id rather have poured concrete floors and countertop, all cracked on the surface with sub floor heating. My uncles house has it and my dad is putting it in his new house, and gotta tell you concrete floors kick ass. Especially in the winter time and they are all warm.

Edit: I concur, N8's idea of design sucks.

Meh... you and Mack can live together in a Frank Gerry inspired chicken-wire and tin shack if you like but it ain't for me.

Eh, she basiclly went to find new clients, and put the bill one some one else...
She works for the Coxe Group, they specialize in fixing troubles within architectural firms, and she is an indipendant contractor. So when the firms that the Coxe group is working for needs a new employee she goes and finds them.
Check out this bar in Poland. Imagine stumbling out of here after a few too many!
