11-25-09 Architectural Manipulation
in Architecture
Several weeks ago I commented on the manipulative nature of photography. In looking for a photo to post today, I came across this detail from a resort our family had stayed at in 2002. And I was struck by how architects and designers are engaged in manipulation: simple posts could have held up the roof and there is really no need for color. But instead, we get something that is soothing and alluring.
In a side note, I am also struck by similarities between the colors in this place and in the Denver Art Museum photo that I posted on November 1 ("A Human Interface").
