RIP #RichardRogers, the legendary British architect behind some of the world's most memorable buildings, including 1977's Centre Pompidou in Paris (co-created with Renzo Piano) with its futuristic inside-out design revealing its inner workings. One of the greats. #architecture
New installation 'pond[er]' at @NGVMelbourne features a body of water and a body of indigenous plants. Flanking the eye-catching pink pond by architects Taylor Knights, beds of Victorian wildflowers by Ben Scott Garden Design will bloom at different times. Pic Derek Swalwell #NGV
A collaboration between #TaylorKnightsArchitects and artist James Carey, 'pond[er]' at @NGVMelbourne invites you to reflect on the environment. The installation's pink water recalls Victoria's pink inland salt lakes highlighting water as a scarce resource. Pic Derek Swalwell #NGV
We all need time to ponder these days and where better to do it than in a pink pond? Dreamy oasis 'pond[er]' is the winner of 2021's #NGVArchitectureCommission, open until 28 August at Melbourne's #NGV International. Kid-friendly, it's perfect for paddling. Pic Derek Swalwell
To be honest, I'm not a big fan of #purple (I'd almost say it was a phobia). And #Pantone's #coloroftheyear2022 is definitely purple despite their description of it as a periwinkle blue. After the year we've had, I think a soothing green or blue would be more of a natural vibe.
Introducing the Pantone Color of the Year 2022, PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri, a dynamic periwinkle blue hue with a vivifying violet red undertone blends the faithfulness and constancy of blue with the energy and excitement of red. Learn more: pantone.com/color-of-the-yea…

East Hollywood Carpark, 2017. This was the lot out the front of the film lab I would go into all the time -before it closed. During the day these incredible shadows would drift across the space. Epic in the everyday. Iv taken 100’s of pictures of this lot over the years. Gm!🙏. – at Los Angeles, CA
