About

.../miscellaneous - is a personal journal self educational in nature, containing notes and images that inspire me, or that I wish to learn more about - as such, it includes works by other people as noted with full acknowledgment and credit to authors and sources.

I also share content of my own making that I think is worth sharing with a larger audience. If there is any work by others who object to having their work posted here, I will remove the content if so requested.

Matt Niebuhr - Works ...examining the threshold at which ordinary visibility ends and perception begins... is a site featuring my work exclusively.

svanemøllen koblingsstation (facility for the distribution of electricity),østerbro, copenhagen, denmark 1966-1968.architect: hans chr. hansen, 1901-1978, working for the copenhagen municipal architects department under f.c.lund, 1896-1984. Photography: SEIER+SEIER KEY NOTE:  ”the wood here is neither cladding nor part of the supporting frame. rather, it is the actual shuttering which the concrete walls were cast against, left in place - the process quite literally becoming the architecture. the layers of svanemøllen’s exterior walls are - from the outside - wood shuttering, left in place; tar paper; hard insulation batts; concrete. the inside formwork was dismantled as it played no part in fastening or protecting the insulation.” via SEIER+SEIER - notes.
