ALUMINIUM TABLE, 1980
Inspired by aircraft construction, I tried to make a 6ft by 4ft table as light as
possible. Unfortunately someone sat on the table right in the middle tearing the aluminium
out of the rivets, so I had to reinforce it with a bit of steel.
I'm not sure what to think about Norman Foster (the posh British architect). He obviously
shares my admiration for aircraft construction, and I like his Stanstead airport, but his
style doesn't seem a particularly cosy or human sort of architecture. |
