An Oldie, But A Goodie




Loved this article when I read it way back in 'aught one.   Describes Cecil Balmond, engineer of choice to starchitects from Rem Koolhaas to Philip Johnson as he blurs the line between structural engineering and design.  Very cool read, particularly if you tend to think (as I do) that the beauty of architecture is in the melding of structural science and artistic creativity.
