Re: Re: Pastiche – The Final Solution?

this building is exactly what im talking about. after a few years of weathering no one will know the difference between the original and the extension and the lie will be complete. this is worse than a cheap rip off because at least that could have hidden behind the excuse of minimum effort or expense. buildings like this confuse our collective understanding of our urban environments,their history and their story.

as architects we should not aspire to make facile lies concerned only with the creation of a false history. it is damaging.
