Drawing Evolution


One is an image found with Google using the term 'Reflected Ceiling Plan' in the image search master. It's representing the ceiling of the US Capitol.
The next one is a screenshot of a RCP which we are currently working on in the office. It's representing the ceiling of a carpark.
Both beautiful, but quite a difference...

Flower Pots.

Not only cars, but also houses are getting more and more environmentally friendly.
This roofscape is taken in Paris. The chimneys seem to be perfect for the nearby future.
No smoke but flower?
