TED / Talks / Norman Foster: Building on the green agenda (video)


http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/174
Architect Norman Foster discusses his own work to show how computers can help architects design buildings that are green, beautiful and "basically pollution-free." He shares projects from throughout his career, from the pioneering roof-gardened Willis Building (1975) to the London Gherkin (2004). He also comments on two upcoming megaprojects: a pipe to bring water from the Red Sea to the Dead Sea, and the new Beijing airport.

Graduate Program Poster


I finally finished this darn poster for the graduate program. They need it for the "design awards exhibit" next week. I was so busy I ended up with only two days to work on it. I had no time to gather materials... This will have to do. Posting it here is simply a sign of relief.. a sense of victory I want to cherish for a bit longer...
