On "Possible Architectures"

Right now the series, “possible architectures” is based on this theme I have of old soviet style block apartments. They are sort of rough and ugly and banal. Much like the original concepts that sought uniformity through the basic functionality designed to warehouse workers of the glorious revolution. They are a good match for my rudimentary drawing skill set (lost from the past) and probably not worthy of public consumption. They do however, indulge my craving to create conceptual architecture. Like the actual creations themselves for the housing of the proletariat, they are certainly capable of better.

Interesting that your intent was "rough, ugly, banal, Soviet-style," when my first thoughts were the architecture of desert or the Greek isles...

Guess it's all in the interpretation.
