The Ilikai (WaikΔ«kΔ« - 1964) by John Graham (who designed the space needle) looking sexy in a red carnation lei.
From: the Hawaii Modernism Library. A semi-failed #digitalhumanities #archive I put together.
Needless demolition of a cool modernist building, coarse language
What a fucking bummer. The Burroughs-Wellcome building (1972) by Paul Rudolph is being demolished. https://www.heraldsun.com/news/local/article248406460.html π’ π§ πͺ¨ βΉοΈ
#Introduction: I'm a #gay, married, cis man, in #Seattle. I work in #urbanplanning. I used to work in #historicpreservation and am #historian of #modernism in #architecture in #Hawaii and #Oregon
I have #adhd which I sometimes manage. I run an #omeka site, watch boring #history #documentaries and play cutesy #indiegames.
I'm #black βπΎ but have a white fam. I don't think they meant to adopt a #mixedrace kid. God's joke on them! I also grew up all over so... weird, wondering identity.
Pinafore plugging, ui design whining
OK, #Pinafore made the fediverse make a lot more sense to me. It's a healing salve for my clutter averse eyes. https://pinafore.social/
Survived into middle age with adhd. City planner, former historic preservation bureaucrat. Mixed-race and old enough that it's notable. Let's be friends?
