Disney Concert Hall



Aside from this being a sculptural, I thought it was quit clever how it this wood sculptures houses structure and HVAC. 


 The play of materials on the roof garden: between the metal panels of the building, the dutch china on the flower sculpted fountain, and the greenery.

Reflection

Oasis in the middle of downtown LA

Gehry's concert hall is one of my favorite pieces of architecture because the form to me is active and alive, like music. It creates a strong presence, in an area dominated by office blocks. Gehry incorporates the mechanics, structure, and lighting all into each structural form. He also created a roof top sanctuary in the heat of downtown LA.
