New Trend in Architecture: ROCKETS!


Big Frank was struck by a new building that seemingly just sproated up overnight in Shinjuku. It's the new HAL (game design company) building. It is beautiful and it looks just like a rocket. Here's a link to what the inside of the building looks like. Maybe this is some kind of a trend, take a look at, for example the new Swiss Re Building in London. One might start thinking that these could be so obviously rockets that nobody would actually believe that they were indeed rockets. In this way people in various cities are preparing the exodus from this threatened world of ours. Big Frank took a couple of photos of the building and the one above left looks pretty standard, but the next one, below right, (taken only 30 seconds later from pretty much the same place) seemed to have captured some effervescence-like substance surrounding the rocket building that could be indicative of some real funny business (gassing up, beaming down . . . who knows??).
