greaseproof architecture since 2000

Shanghai

Here’s a pic of what Wood Marsh are up to in Shanghai for the upcoming expo. The government PR article it came in on makes nary a mention of the architects, as SA PRESIDENT pointed out in Twitterland. As Stuart Harrison said on the Architects radio show on Tuesday (after a visit), this one refers strongly to Wood Marsh’s 1990s ACCA building in Melbourne.

looks nothing like acca, except for maybe the cladding/colour.
proves that some people don’t know shite from clay.
well done.

if it is like ACCA it will have a huge mistake right above the front door.

If that doesn’t look anything like ACCA.. then I don’t look anything like me Mum.

don’t mind it hacktually.
reckon the WMs r the right people 4 the job.
ACMI felt lame – but ayers rock with a disco inside has grown on me over time.

by hairdresser on 05/12/09 ·#

…. I guess it makes a change from the permanent disco on top of the rock

by luke on 05/12/09 ·#

yeah put the disco inside it….brilliant idea…
core ten is the new black hd….
took a fare down to the great ocean road…
the marshalls have got some more freeway stuff on the new by-pass….pretty good…
although they could lose the lollie strips…

australia is modern version of northern island – or as Barry Humpries says,
‘Australia is the Brisbane of the world.’
