I really admire so many of his works. They are so effortlessly cool, incredibly tasteful and respectful for the location they are built in.
I think it is exactly combining the new with the old. You can see the history in the buildings and the new roof and coal droppings add a new innovative touch that lifts up the history and says HOPE. I love it and think you did a great job.
Heatherwick is the artistic genius of our time, without any doubt. Amazing when viewed from any angle, like the projects he oversees. He has the ability to transform solid to vacant and sleek to raw. Surprising and completely satisfying.
There are far more brilliant architects who design complex forms that work efficiently and have a high value artistically: Wolf Prix of Coop Himmelblau, Steven Holl, Thom Mayne, Peter Zumthor, to name a few.
@@rr7firefly None of the architects you suggested are nearly as good as Heatherwick. I am sorry.
@@JohnnyWAING Looks like you need to really get into what architecture is about. It is not just a matter of generating novel departures from the historical precedents or creating a buzz on social media. Architecture is a discipline that is rooted in solid study. Heatherwick has not received a Pritzker Prize. Come back with your argument after he does, but not before.
This is brilliant
This is some inception shit, love it!
Can I repost this video in my blog?
Thomas Heatherwick.....Great....
The roof is beautifully done, but after being there it still feels a bit cold.
For some reason, it's not an inviting space. The roofs look good from above, but they do nothing to me from the pedestrian point of view. Well, it's just me.
Would have looked nicer if the roof completely wrapped over and around. The meeting of the glazing and the roof looks clunky at the pedestrian level.
Eyesore
Another 19th century shell. Very pretty, very dull. I think an interesting thing would be to establish the infrastructure to be flexibly placed, clear the arches and let the individual and communal spaces evolve organically: letting the businesses and people figure out how the projects function, rather than architects and developers. Give tenants a low cost alternative and say a decade of evolution and see what happens.
