Willem-Jan Neutelings: "how to Design an Icon" (Archinect : Features)
I found this via http://www.ceosforcities.org/conversations/blog/, and have had it open in a tab for DAYS now, wondering how to annotate/ sum it up, and I can't seem to do it justice. Here's Archinect's introduction: A conversation with Willem-Jan Neutelings about the tradition of architecture and the way iconography should be applied in architecture." Just that bit: how "iconography should be applied in architecture" is amazing. Who speaks of such things cogently these days? Dares to? At the same time, I find myself in agreement with commentator Ivo, at the end of this blog entry, who writes: "I don't know about Neutelings-Riedijk. It's too simple for me, almost cartoonish. A harbour college that looks like stacked shipping containers, an earth-sciences building that looks like covered in dirt, a TV and media centre is clad in blurred tv images. No offence they make nice sculptures, but I expect my architects to come up with something more than the first (obvious) idea that springs to mind while being faced with a client/project."
