can you recognize these milwaukee places in lego mosaic form?
: crystals retail and entertainment @ citycenter | las vegas, nv | usa | january 2010

: art of ice and light :
: utter opulence at louis vuitton - one would expect nothing less.


: a pleasant surprise outside one of the crystals entrances -> henry moore sculpture :
: crystals retail and entertainment @ citycenter | las vegas, nv | usa | january 2010:

: talk about eye candy! these stairs looked so delicious i would've eaten them had people never walked upon them.
: paul meets piet? {mondrian}.
: clone captain rex scales the willis {sears*, when this lego building was actually created/purchased} tower in search of a better view of the guggenheim, its apparent next door neighbor on my ledge :
: *see also previous pics from the ledge at willis {sears} - http://post.ly/CCSt: my boy 'reading' my mail after school. not sure if i should be concerned ; )
: citycenter | las vegas, nevada, usa :
some views of the recently opened starchitecture project {studio daniel liebeskind, pelli clarke pelli architects, helmut jahn, rv architecture / rafael vinoly, rockwell group, kohn pederson fox, foster + partners, gensler} which was awarded LEED gold certification. it's worth taking time to explore inside and out during your next visit to sin city... all for some architectural enlightenment and guiltless pleasure.: groovy distorted view from i15 expressway :
: form, color, transparency, reflection : quick view heading up i15

: veer towers. brilliant. thank you helmut jahn :
: entry canopy : i love how its structure makes the plaza feel connected yet open.

: water wall wonderwall :
: admiring a favorite detail :
: waiting area for cirque du soleil's viva elvis show :
apparently a recurring theme is playing with spatial effects of light filters, because i noticed throughout citycenter a whole lotta light changing color goin' on!
: also check out the official site at http://citycenter.com
: chihuly gallery at citycenter | las vegas, nevada | usa | january 2010 :
: just sharing some images for anyone who hasn't had a chance to experience these amazing pieces first-hand...
: one of the two veer towers, my favorite building of the project, {helmut jahn designed residential highrises} beyond
: the chihuly gallery is suitably sited on a glazed corner, allowing visual interaction with the outdoor space where aria resort meets vdara spa towers and veer towers... all the while the citycenter elevated tram zooms by smoothly overhead.
: blue glass reeds with citycenter place and tram outside
: fountain lights outside constantly change while the waters dance
: note the minimal guardrail surrounding this enormous green blown glass artwork. so many people, both adult and children, kept wanting and trying to touch the glass points... and i kept holding my breath while wanting to smack those people! when we first stepped into the gallery, a man was talking to one of the gallery workers with his american express in clear view, "how much is that piece over there? my son took an accidental swing at it..." errh i wonder what his credit limit was?!
