CONCRETE CONTRIBUTIONS

GreyScape is the place for the Concrete Community to share photo essays, great pictures their ideas. Here are the guidelines for submitting posts and by sending us a submission you agree all these points, so please read them carefully.

Send your submission by email to info@greyscape.com. Pictures are fundamentally important to what we’re doing so please send us good quality photos in jpeg format, minimum 3000 pixels on the shortest side. And we welcome your text alongside the photos, your thoughts and ideas and commentary. Do add movies and drawings and plans. Don’t feel that your piece has to be like others we put up on the site, express yourself. We may, of course, edit what you send us and very, very importantly you must comply with our copyright rules.

We can’t promise if or when a submission will be posted to the site but we will be keener to do so if you are only sending the project to us. We shall keep in touch with you by email.

It is important for us that we give credit to everyone who has contributed to something we publish so please send us all the names of people who have been involved. We don’t pay for anything submitted to us.

If and when we publish your submission expect us to post it or an extract on Twitter or other social and mobile media. As we said we may edit your work. Out of all this we hope to get people interested and excited, stimulated by your ideas and commenting, responding to your work with their views. Please do send us your own responses to comments. As we are the Concrete Community we shall moderate comments but we aren’t responsible for any comments. Please do send us your responses to comments that people make.

We shall be relying on you to ensure that the photographs and text you send us is your property, your intellectual property and that you own the copyright and are legally entitled to send us the material and permit us to publish it. If someone challenges this then we may remove the material. This is important because if we suffer a loss because we’ve posted something that you don’t own or have the right to let us post, you are responsible for compensating us. If you have any doubt about your rights to send us material, you should take legal advice.

We will do our best not to publish anything factually inaccurate, defamatory, abusive, obscene or in any other way we judge inappropriate. You are responsible if anything you submit is any of these things.

Just a quirky example of novelty architecture? The Just a quirky example of novelty architecture? The Teacup Dome gas station is an anything but kitsch reminder of a nasty scandal, declared the ‘high water mark of cabinet corruption’.

When architect Jack Ainsworth designed a petrol station as a teapot with a handle and spout in 1922 he wasn’t just nodding to a rock formation, a ‘geological structural uplift’ to be precise described before its erosion as having a ‘handle’ and ‘spout’, located close to important navel oil reserves in Teapot Dome, Wyoming. He was reminding everyone of its connection to a criminal trial and Senate investigation that gripped the nation and said to be of the magnitude of the Watergate scandal. 

It saw Albert Fall, the Interior Secretary of President Warren G Harding’s administration sent to prison after awarding two of his friends leases to extract oil from Teapot Dome oil fields which held crucial naval oil reserves (alongside a bunch of other sites), and brought the Harding government down. 

Today the teapot sits protected in the Memorial Park of the City of Zillah, Washington, after taking a bashing and caving in after being hit by car in the 1970s. It’s now restored and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
