The Palace Hotel, San Francisco
The Garden Court, famous for it's fifty, immense, Waterford crystal and gold Chandeliers, as well as the enormous, domed glass ceiling.
The ceiling of The Garden Court. The ceiling is one enormous skylight. At night, the beauty is almost surreal.

Pattern: Technicolor Bloom
Technicolor Bloom. The interactive image on a website. The first image is what you see when you first land on the site. As you move your mouse over the image, it shifts and changes, much like a kaleidoscope, thus the two images that follow the first. Very intriguing and beautiful. Even more intriguing is the architectural installation created from plywood and acrylic sheets. A design and engineering marvel. Amazing.
