If only the architecture were properly modernist...

The projects in a state of perfection? Yards of maize and Miesian buildings.

Mr. Hulot would be riding his bike along the cyclone fence.

Good Afternoon Charles,
I'm a fan of Mies Van Der Rohe. I've seen some of his work in Chicago and I've been inside "Farnsworth House" in Plainfield, IL. He practiced there for many years (in Chicago) after leaving Germany. I've actually seen his grave at Graceland Cemetary on the Near North Side of the city. He has some fascinating design.
