A great essay using a very wide net but also a very interesting one. It's a pity Terry's snail-house was not been built. An observation: In a way the Surealist dream seems to resurface in some of todays buildings based on computer 3D designs. It's as if technology is at last able to combine modern building methods with free thinking in form, surface and colour. Alas that "'originality" can easily become furmulaic in itself, as if functionality must, at least on the outside, be avoided at any cost. Worse still: Only few of these designs actually satisfy the eye of the onlooker. But what about a Terry style snailhouse combined with le Corbusiers minimalism, as that picture of the white model almost seems to suggest (to my eye at least)? Wouldn't that be a nice combination? And to also put that in a (post)modern context it could actually be built up out of 3D printed elements. Never say never: For instance: A few years back I designed a Nautilus shaped ideal house for myself without knowing about Terry's design. But it will probably also not be built. I'm not even an architect!
I want to live in a snail house.
I came here because a friend sent me a picture of le corbusier painting in the nude he was older he had a huge scar on his thigh that ran down his leg which made me recall an architect friend of mine had a book of Dali's essay on various musings one of which is le Corbusier . Which was very amusing and not very kind
this comment is completely unintelligible
@@betapicts befittingly so?
