The ugliest house in the city

This is said to be the ugliest builting in the city.

It is not very hard to agree, is it?

But now it is promised that the building will be restored.........hopefully to something better.

This sort of building, constructed in pre-fabricated flat panels, sprang up all over after World War II. I think they called it "International Style". It was featureless and ugly then and no amount of restoration can do much to change that. It was a reaction against the buildings we all love which are filled with detail and embellishment.

It's a shame when structures go up really without some community feedback on the design, lighting or even landscaping. They are all so important to the energy & style of the town or city they belong. This building doesn't even have the industrial look to it - I wonder what they will come up with.

It's got that prison feeling to it....

Trondheim Through al Seasons

I love to travel, and often you find me somewhere around the world, taking photos, writing, exploring. Through a this I aways have Trondheim on my mind. The city where I live and work, and after being a blogger, bogging daily in The House in the Woods, for almost 5 years, it was high time to start a Trondheom blog. Several people have been and are my inspiration. I want to mention especialy Merisis in the Merisi - Vienna for Begiiners blog and also Ivar Mølksnes and his "Byglimt" in the main paper in Trondheim and Midt Norge.
