Circa Architecture: Saffire
Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 11:11 am
The "suites" -- an interior is shown in the last photo -- are apparently the individual units: motel rooms, or "cabins" ? I wish more were shown of those.
The window grid of the main space is made to appear like an open screen by the simple expedient (I think) of extending some of the horizontal mullions onto adjacent lites -- requiring no unusual cutting of glass. It's always refreshing to see the simplest of aesthetic devices making its debut, after 100 years (give or take) of modernist form-making.
