I’m all for new ideas…but…

May 18th, 2010

I came across the work of Vincent Callebaut today, a recent architecture graduate at Institute Victor Horta in Brussels, well recent being 2000. His work is definetly conceptual, and not too certain how much of the projects could be possible. I appreciate the invistigative nature of his work, and that is what architecture should be. It should address modern day concerns and issues. However, at what point does it become art and not architecture? Some of the more recent stuff is a little beefy on the impossible and he may be more likely to get hired by James Cameron for Avatar 4 than actually seeing them built.

His website can be found here, and I’ve attached some images for your interest. (side note, I couldn’t find out how to turn off that music either on his website)
