Art Deco Windows to Contemporary Configuration
In playing with the windows of the power plant I imagined an updated design, if indeed they could be improved upon, made more efficient. In the simplest sketch looking only into proportions I came up with the following.
As of January 21, 2015 I have found an informative article on this very subject on a Google search to a National Parks website.
#13 - How to preserve steel sash windows
After a while of becoming involved in this project I have found that I am the most interested in the windows and doors. I find it entirely plausible that many ideas could be applied into re-purposing merely from the fact that the building has been added onto two or three times already, and in each a certain symmetry characteristic in Art Deco had been lost. In a poetic interpretation of form following function this building in that is reflected in a sort of asymetrical character of the city itself in the fits and starts of development under several idiosyncratic administrations and influences. That said, it need not be looked at as a bad thing as long as this asymmetry can be dynamically balanced.
