    Some of those buildings look like something out of a Dr. Seuss book. I also appreciate the sentiment "the world is not rectangular." It's good to see some architects getting outside of what I call the "Minecraft trap," where everything is a block.

    • @michaelsd284
      @michaelsd284 Před 3 měsíci

      Both are true, but I interpreted them as examples of contrast. So for Herzog&DeMeuron the narrator was showing an example of Asymmetry and sharp angles vs her evolution in parametric design (curvatures and flowing lines). The same Norman Foster where the narrator points to the resemblance of his first project to Renzo's. I do agree this video could have provide more clarity by showing side-by-side comparisons where he could footnote the architect to give more clarity.

    *Juice*
    Juice is a drink made from the extraction or pressing of the natural liquid contained in fruit and vegetables. It can also refer to liquids that are flavored with concentrate or other biological food sources, such as meat or seafood, such as clam juice. Juice is commonly consumed as a beverage or used as an ingredient or flavoring in foods or other beverages, as for smoothies. Juice emerged as a popular beverage choice after the development of pasteurization methods enabled its preservation without using fermentation (which is used in wine production).[1] The largest fruit juice consumers are New Zealand (nearly a cup, or 8 ounces, each day) and Colombia (more than three quarters of a cup each day). Fruit juice consumption on average increases with country income level.[2]

    Calatrava in a top 5 list? He specializes in moving buildings that don't move at all, his buldings tipically cost three times the initial budget, and you will never manage to speak to him without being despised. In a top 100 list of architects, he should be the last.
