Beehive Building & Parliament House, Wellington Ne

Beehive Building & Parliament House, Wellington New Zealand, Ngā whare Paremata (1980), built to architect Sir Basil Spence’s 1963 Brutalist design. A former President of RIBA Spence was Chief Architect of the 1951 Festival of Britain Exhibition of Industrial Power. According to WellingtonCityHeritage.org ‘In the late 1950s it was proposed that the Parliament Buildings, that has been left unfinished in 1922, should be completed. The Government of the time, however, decided that a completely new building should be constructed on the site. The British architect Sir Basil Spence was engaged to contribute plans for a new building in 1963. It is rumoured that he was contracted after meeting the Prime Minister Keith Holyoake and sketching the design for a round building on a napkin.’ Work got underway in 1969 once the original building had been demolished.

So often we see the whole - the magnificence is in

So often we see the whole - the magnificence is in the detail beautifully photographed by Roberto Conte aka @ilcontephotography Casa del Portuale (House of Port Workers) Aldo Loris Rossi, the architect of the port-house was the locally-born son of a working class port worker, who later became Professor of Architecture at the University of Naples . This was built between 1968 and 1980 to support the welfare of the port workers. The port remains - this building is part used however several floors are abandoned. With an explicit connection to the previous post - Rossi was an admirer of Paolo Soleri who built Arcosanti in Arizona. Anyone familiar with the tv series ‘Gomorrah’ might recognise it as Campania airport (thanks to Napolitouristica.com for this nugget). Couple of films to consider, Oscar nominated Le quattro giornate di Napoli (Four days in Naples), The hand of God (avoid at all costs if you’re an England football fan looking forward to the world cup:) and …Il Postino
