But then, that is what makes architecture such an interesting art, because it surrounds our everyday lives, so everyone has an opinion. <br /><br />But for me, this building is a thing of beauty ~ from the wonderful saw tooth roofline {a personal favourite and one I try to use whenever possible because it works so well in Australia with our climate} and the wonderful contrast of materials.Glamour Dropshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12651174250292927988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8891214875568791950.post-18057482710933045592011-04-06T13:10:59.057+10:002011-04-06T13:10:59.057+10:00i don't know why there is not more going on wi...i don't know why there is not more going on with this kind of design. Simple and effective, 'green'and spacious. So much could be done with the existing architecture for office or living spaces. New buildings tend to have that industrial/shed look, so why not use what's there?BeeGardenArtisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15935237364256999464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8891214875568791950.post-88390528601765361632011-04-04T21:32:10.088+10:002011-04-04T21:32:10.088+10:00Yes Kylie, they would make fantastic conversions i...Yes Kylie, they would make fantastic conversions into homes and other uses. The light that floods in as a result of the sawtooth design would be brilliant and much needed in Tasmania!Thomas Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10295062570302129782noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8891214875568791950.post-34503580320513281862011-04-04T21:27:23.091+10:002011-04-04T21:27:23.091+10:00Love them!

I was just saying to my husband as we were driving past some factories a couple of hours ago, what a great shape those saw toothed roofs would be for a domestic home...even better converting a building like the one in your pic into a home (without stuffing it up of course!) We have always liked roofs and buildings like these.Kyliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10258543009688502584noreply@blogger.com
