GREATER LONDON AUTHORITY

This building its located at the Thames riverside,made by the famous architect Sir Norman Foster, as many projects near to the Greater London Authority. i very like this building, cose even if its a very hughe building, when you stay inside of it, you feel it very close, i dont know if i can make ti clear... but probably some one will understand. ajajaja

its a 10 floor building whit a very great central space, this it calls London´s living room, and its kind of a exibition room....that its goes from the bottom to the top.

another great part of this building its the square next to him... its a beautifull place to stay on it,where you can see all of this building and the places near to it, like the Thames Tower Bridge, or to enjoy the beautty Thames river side.

also in this building the skins that cover it, have many function, like reduce the radation and win some heat, as you see its has been worked in a sustentable way.

cheers!!!

BBC

when i read about surf in that page, i seriulsy said... for what! jajaja, but then when i started to get into it, i listened 2 of the options... and it was very nice, i feel that it was not for nothing.
i listened "better speaking" and it was very nice... it was of how good its to can express clearly your ideas, no matter if you are not right using the right gramma or vocabulary.
the put a record of the famous tennis player Steffi Graf who is from Germany so the english is not her native lenguage, and they examine the way she talk and her mistakes... i think that its a very good way to learn by your own english...
after that i had listen some news from britain, it was a new of the beefs... jajaja... some trade that they made with North Korea, and the meat was in the middle of this... the were talking about how expencive were the meat before the trade and how it will be after that ( of course much cheaper that now)

and that its....

i think that its a very good choice to learn english from this page

Cheers!!!

get your own images!

The site its call http://www.gettyimages.com/, its a very nice place where you can get beautty images for free, for example... you put on the search engine "Central park" and the page will ask you if the search that it will be done its right, then all the images will apear on the screen, the page have only one problem... if you download the image, the logo will appear on the picture, so you have to work it on photoshop to erase it.
i usually go into the page, becose you always need good pictures for the tasks of the university and i really like it!. when i was in second year i discover it, then whit the pictures all the task made it much easier... jajaja.
another great page it was http://www.pandora.com/... it was kind of a radio where you can listen your favorites music bands, and the similar bands that probably you will like, this dream ends becose the USA laws... copyrigth and that stuffs, i think that teh page still exist but now you can't use it, its only for americans.

see you next post!

Victory City

As you can see, this is a new effort from a little part of the humanity to make a better place to live in the future...
As an architecture student i can remember many examples like this, for example:
-The Metabolism
-The modern movement
-etc...
but all of those ones only left a mark in the timeline of architecture as an good effort, but as i think, they only were a good try of make a better place for us.
i cant tell if this city will serve as they want... but! lets give them a chance to try of make this world a better world...

PD:
any way, am kind of tired to live in a place that you does not see the andes becose of the pollution... JJAJAJJA
