Nice article over on the Washington Post, “Gains in Spain: Once-Staid Architecture Soars Ahead of the Curve” (Link – free registration may be required). I’m actually not surprised by what’s going on in the region. Not because I’m reading architectural digests, I’ve just noticed all the images being posted online. By the way, here’s a thought: ailing Kodak, in partnership with some of these architects, should be sponsoring photo competitions.

Anyway, if you read the article check out the slideshow. I culled the above image specifically because there was a rapid-prototyping sensibility in that lattice design. Growing that thing would be like… I have to say this… icing on the cake. To understand what I mean, check out a previous entry (Link).
