underappreciated moments of life:
- early mornings before everyone’s awake
- unexpected sunshine
- turning on the radio to hear the exact song that was stuck in your head
- noticing flowers on the first day they bloom
- sunday afternoon naps
- ladybugs/butterflies landing on you
- a friend telling you they love you for the first time
I like art, and by art I mean music, poetry, sex, paintings, the human body, literature… All of this is art to me.

Modern Relics: A Retrospective of Ruin Interventions
Ruins and dilapidated structures are often celebrated because, apart from nostalgic value, the natural dilapidation itself over time may offer a sculptural aesthetic to the structure. This phenomenon is unique due to its temporality. often, in restoring these structures, architects incorporate crisp, contemporary materials to contrast the ruinous elements. Celebrating the original structure in this way serves to highlight the ragged edges and deterioration. in other instances architects have approached the task of renovation with a more traditionalist philosophy, respecting or replicating the archaic materiality.
designboom revisits the ruin renovations and interventions covered in the past to investigate these different approaches. Follow the source link to learn more about each project. Identified from the top:
