Dreaming Architecture: From Chicago to The World

Is the American dream any different to the British dream or the German? I had a dream in Chicago in 1988; on my arrival, before starting as an architectural intern at Skidmore Owings & Merrill at 33 W Monroe. It was about looking for the building of Helmut Jahn; the Postmodernist Thompson Center. It was not to be found; but another building did appear that seemed to honour water. It was black ,lit with sunlight and showed dark greys in the shadow and greens from the reflection of the water. It was not until much later in my career/education that I stumbled on a similar construction, in a lecture at the Architectural Association. Peter Cook and Christine Hawley were presenting their Osaka Folly, built in 1990 in Japan. Of course I did go to the Thompson Center, where they issued my Social Security Card. I was taken that the vast space that escaped the laws of fire protection, due to it being a governmental building. It too had taken the lives of 5 construction workers. A cable lowering a bucket carrying six construction workers at the building site broke, hurling five of them 80 feet to their deaths and seriously injuring the sixth.

I had a dream that I could understand architecture and become an architect.

### Review of "Thru' These Architect's Eyes" by David Bowie

David Bowie's "Thru' These Architect's Eyes" is a unique blend of edgy pop that intriguingly intertwines music and architecture. The song, part of Bowie's 1995 concept album "Outside," features Bowie singing lines like “Stomping along on this big Philip Johnson,” highlighting a fascinating focus on architectural giants such as Philip Johnson and Richard Rogers.

This track, with its vibrant and compelling vocal performance, paints a vivid picture of city landscapes through the perspective of an architect, showcasing Bowie's ability to weave complex narratives into his music. The reference to Johnson and Rogers isn't just name-dropping; it reflects Bowie's deep engagement with art and architecture, inviting listeners to explore these influences further.

The song gains additional layers when one considers the biographical elements of Johnson and Rogers. Johnson's career, marked by his transformation from modernism to postmodernism, and Rogers' iconic works like the Centre Pompidou, provide a rich backdrop to the song's exploration of urban majesty and creative struggle.

Bowie's lyrics suggest a broader commentary on the interplay between architecture and societal health, resonating with themes of resilience and innovation, especially poignant in cities like Berlin and London. The city's landscape, with its towering structures and intricate designs, becomes a metaphor for Bowie's own artistic journey, filled with ambition, frustration, and the relentless pursuit of excellence.

For those interested in the confluence of music, architecture, and urban culture, "Thru' These Architect's Eyes" offers a compelling narrative that bridges these worlds, illustrating how the built environment can inspire and reflect artistic creation.

'Dancing House' was the first building by any internationally famous architect in post-communist Prague. Frank Gehry joined forces with local architect Vlado Milunić to fill in a corner site, which stood empty for decades after controversial US bombing of Prague in 1945. ⁠ ⁠ Gehry originally named the building after dancers Fred & Ginger, from Golden Age Hollywood films. Since nobody in Czech Republic ever heard of them, the building is simply called 'Tančící dům' (Dancing House).⁠ ⁠ I made this illustration as a wedding gift for a friend who lives in that Art Nouveau building next to it.⁠
