When architects dream

2008.Jan.14. Monday - by settlement heart

If man-made opolises moved as transmutably as the natural landscapes we might not be so quick to disavow their development.

Paul Hollingworth imagines a more natural collusion of the organic and synthetic in his We Love to Build series: floating file cabinet buildings with unmoored drawers; vanishing point bridges that seem to follow the sky.

All of the structures bear the mantra “We Love to Build,” an unapologetic declaration of mankind’s right to create harmonious additions to the planet we populate.

Hollingworth makes the images by splicing together shards and sticks of existing buildings in Photoshop and then dropping them into a landscape. And all of a sudden we’re nostalgic for places we’ve never been.
