Redlan, up close and personal? I’m pretty much gonna stay there the whole day.

Ardebooi, ako, di lang ma-picture-ran, yayakapin ko pa. Thanks for visiting.

I used to think he was a genius, who can design something by crumpling a piece of paper (which he handed to his drafstmen and instructed them to plot the design in 3d)? Now he's famous! His is the perfect example of form against function. You take the form first then you think of a reason why it's there. Then again, the Guggenheim is still an engineering feat. Ahhh Gehry!
