I love it. It’s incredible artistry
Cannot imagine if the Noter Dame has this postmodern approach on its new rooftop. The commenter who is positive in here may be opposite. Hope and understand the blending and fusing onto Notre Dame is also very creative and original, doesn’t need a spire shape, right?
Fascinating. Maybe more curves would blend the two differences in a more sensible way of connection, but I believe that was not the purpose of the Architect. Well done job.
It is not “retrofuturism”! Retrofuturism – is vision of the future from the past eras! How people in the past envisioned future!
Per those images – apparently his perception is that contemporary architecture is superimposed architecture. A very narrow view
Very creative and original. Blending and fusing the past and future. It takes a bit for your eyes to get used to it but once there it opens up a whole world of imagination. Takes imagination to see his work.
I understand this can be a sensitive subject – combining modern and historic architecture, but I have to say, I found these images quite compelling and I’m intrigued. In my opinion, the concept of ‘fusion’ is executed much more successfully than other attempts I’ve seen in the past.
Boring, unimaginative and reckless. It feels like just taking a postmodern building and stacking it on top of an old iranian building or historic monument. There is no fusion or natural blend of old and new. Especially the postmodern buildings on top of the historical monuments feels like an insult and assault on the historic significance of these sites. Feels more like a cry for attention than a real architectural aspiration.
