Designer Wardrobe

Words and Images 

Jonas Althuis

Many jokes play off of stereotypes. One such stereotype is that of the architect that only wears black clothing and takes themselves very seriously. It’s true, architects like this exist, but a short walk around our faculty proves that there is a colourful variety of clothes that we designers wear. “Designer Wardrobe”, an illustration by Jonas Althuis.

Phallic Architecture

Deep down we are all pubescent little children. Or in any case, I probably am. I pretend that when I look at a building I check for the right proportions, materials and concept. But somewhere in this very serious process of evaluating a piece of architecture my brain makes one final check: does this building resemble genitals in any way? Often it does.
