Today's archidose #426
Lonnekerspoorlaan by various architects in Roombeek, Enschede, the Netherlands. The above composite of 25 pictures can be seen in a much LARGER VERSION (definitely recommended).

Wow, my feelings about this photo are so conflicted.
ReplyDeleteSomething tells me I should love the design, yet... yet... I'm disturbed by the complete absence of people, combined with the fact that this nice medium-density facade is backed by detached housing so obviously accessed by private auto. Potemkin urbanism?
The lack of people may stem from how the shot is composed of 25 photos; each could have been taken so as to not have a person "interfering" with the architecture. I'm curious how these blocks fit into the city...what is opposite these building fronts? A mirror image? Water? Detached housing?
