What's So Great About Her, Anyways?



I love the Heritage Architecture found around the city. But the other day, I met a rare building I didn't much like.

The erratic behavior of the windows really irked me. Maybe from the inside the method of the madness would be apparent, but from the outside the size and placement were conflicting and difficult to reason. That's just self-centered architecture to me.


And the lemon merengue walls? I understand decorative detailing, but combined with the faux brick, this building's makeup was too insincerely natural for me to fall for it.

> February 2007. Spanish-style home built 1932-33, Shanghai.
