Frank Gehry

Frank Gehry:

Frank Gehry is one of the most interesting architects to me. He is without a doubt one of, if not the most unique architect out there. He has shown time and time again how he can turn nothing into something. My favorite part about him is that he beleives in art over structure. His use of curvilinear shapes in architecture is just amazing. He does not care about structure when he starts to design a building. He designs structure after he decides about what he wants the exterior to look like. He has mostly dedicated his work to the deconstruction of architecture and cares little about sustainability and more about the overall look. He is probably the most famous architect that is still living. My favorite building that he has done is a toss up between the Walt Disney Concert Hall and the Guggenheim in Bilbao. They are beautiful pieces of art. Also as a side note, I've always wanted to get one of his cardboard chairs. Some day....
