Julien Carretero - To be continued

Nice process of casting from/on the original perfect cast, then from/on that cast...repeat, allowing the imperfections in the casting process to dictate the form. Check out the "to be continued rewound" video on his site.

Iller Hydroplant - Becker Architekten

Hydroplant by Becker Architekten on the Iller river South-West Germany.

Thought this place was amazing, it's like a piece of Glacier has floated down the river and got wedged here.
Generates enough power for 3000 homes apparently...

Reminded me of Zaha Hadid's Sand Dune inspired furniture which are interesting but I think these amorphous work better on a larger scale.
