I am a big fan of contemporary architecture, particularly the work of the British architect John Pawson.

 

I take it that this is a Liverpool skyline. I feel compelled to say that those third rate white modernist structures are a blight and totally unharmonious with the church and the other brown stone/brick structures.

 

I was in Bath this summer and saw the contemporary addition that formed the new Bath Spa. Superb! Through the use of appropriate materials it was an harmonious addition to a historical city. Liverpool planners need to exercise more aesthetic control. End of rant.

I totally agree:

Too late to stop it now :(

 

Cheers,

Pete.

My intention was to see how to translate some shots of my surroundings to the web. I think what's going on in Liverpool is dramatic but a wasted oportunity we can't stop it, or, influence it so I take it as it comes.
