Stunning tile and concrete work, just stunning. I also love the juxtaposition of local gravel stones, with their irregular shapes and arrangement, with the more rigid, linear patterns of the masonry composition. A contrasting wood door with a raw aluminum kick plate, and a cheeky width expansion side panel, invite the viewer to wonder what magic lies behind that door. The frosted glass windows suggest something exciting, but give up no secrets to those unwilling to cross the threshold. This is functional art. Mixed media mid central industrialism of the highest order.
The beauty
I dont get it. Why is this a meme ?
Ah dear Olten. How much of my life has been spent in your hallowed halls waiting to see how long the train to Basel is delayed…
Photoshopped!
I loved living in Olten…and the 30minute trains to luzern, zurich, basel…you were a good friend.
