Xpressionz of an Architect…Search for:Skip to contentHomeAbout MeHobbiesMy ProjectsMozart of modernismMay 2, 2014May 2, 2014shasbe@gmail.com Hearst Tower in New York is one of the works of Architect Norman Foster. It’s triangular and diamond shaped geometry used is considered one of the stable shapes found in nature. Also structuraly it uses less steel leading to a sustainable design. The corners are unlike any other skyscraper and seem as a piece of sculpture. This building with its clean lines defines how Fosters Buildings seem truly effortless. Rightfully compared by an Architectural critic to a symphony. His style truly is a mirror of modernism. I am inspired by this Great Architect and going to explore his work. Here is a link to its official site and you can find out why Norman Foster is called the Mozart of modernism.http://www.hearst.com/real-estate/hearst-towerFamous ArchitectsSketches- Victoria ParliamentMay 2, 2014May 3, 2014shasbe@gmail.comMy WorkRomeMarch 27, 2013April 17, 2014shasbe@gmail.com There can hardly be any other place on earth so full of Art and cultural Heritage which has influenced rest of the world in its own way as Rome, Italy. There have been many master architects, painters, sculptors , artists here who have left their legacy for us to follow. As soon as you enter Rome you realize this. There is the massive Colosseum, Roman Forum , Piazza Venezia to name a few. All the structures studied during architecture school were popping in my head. Had never thought that I would be actually standing in front of them. This was my aha moment!! Roman cities are so well planned, pedestrian friendly and stand true to the test of time. There are piazzas for people to come together for social events. Every piazza or square has its own water fountain flanked by great sculptures. There is a masterpiece in every corner you turn , be it the Trevi fountain, the Spanish steps, Piazza del Popolo, Pantheon..I truly agree on one thing that they say…A lifetime is not enough to see this place. I have tossed coins in the Trevi fountain to ensure that I come back..TravelFeaturedLeave a commentMysterious VeniceMarch 27, 2013April 17, 2014shasbe@gmail.comVenice to me has an enchanting feeling to it keeping all travelers really engulfed in its mystique past. This city built on the black lagoons, is comp letely surrounded by water which not only gives a charming character to this city but also has protected this city from invasions. Built in the 5th century this city was under Austria, France and now part of Italy. All the traffic is on foot here, no cars allowed internally. The streets are lined by shops selling the famous masks. There are astounding Palaces, Bridges, Churches, Museums lined up along the Grand canal. I was really captured by two sites Piazza San Marco and Rialto bridge. Great examples of Gothic architecture. The smaller interior canals are coupled with bridges which almost are waiting to surprise you!!TravelLea
