GOD IS IN THE DETAILS #2

ext2

Due to popular demand, I continue to document buildings where the supreme attention was paid to the detailing and curb appeal. These buildings are designed to give an impression of grandeur, class distinction and definitely set your business place apart from the riff-raff-rickety offices everywhere.

"God is in the details? That deity is named nostalgia."

that nostalgia about liberty and justice for your porn producer on ventura blvd.?

eric chavkin said...

Porn? I think that slant is more along the lines of 'free enterprise' than the legalese and superman motto "freedom and justice (and the American way)".

This arch nostalgia probably caters to law firms - a professional, supreme court look - it has it's semiotics lined up.

indeed, the lawyers are the anchor tenants, offering tax services for the industry...

That's fantastic...The valley's anchor industry has a legal dept staged and like a supreme court. Whats this called Similicra? like genuine oak formica?
