It
was the best looking house on the block, and I wanted to live in it. By playing
in front of it, I thought somehow I was part of it. Perhaps it was more than
that, I think it was the expression of forms and shapes that fascinated me the
most.
The
picture below is of three buildings I walked by for two years on my way to
work. I always thought these buildings were interesting. Not because they are
obviously different in style and materials nor because they are not that “pretty”
looking. It is that there is something eye-catching about them. The deep red
brick, light beige stone and the reflective monolithic grid glass somehow work
together. This picture only depicts a small portion of the relationship and
context between these three very different buildings, their connection with one
and other, their surrounding architecture, the people of Boston and the sky.

time you are outside remember to look up!
