I haven't been traveling much lately, but was in LA for the Weekend. Started with Caesar Pelli's new Red Building at the Pacific Design Center. Also saw Gensler's new 2000 Avenue of the Stars in Century City. Just behind it is the new Annenberg Space for photography...really cool..
Rezno Piano's new Resnick Pavilion has a Tim Burton Exhibition and a great David Smith Sculpture exhibition; Piano's Broad Pavilion was still showing Koons and Serra.
And no trip to LA really counts unless you make it to the Arclight; I especially love the adaptation of Welton Becket's Cinerama Dome.
After four years in Palm Springs, I'm learning to love the town's old and new buildings. This blog will post information about some of them from time to time. I'm thinking it will be part Architecture Appreciation, part architectural criticism. My architectural travel notes wil be posted on http://patrickstravelnotes.blogspot.com/. Over time, they might serve as an archive of the local architectural scene and a view out into the rest of the world.
