Google Street View Art: South-Korea

IMPORTANT

Images in this blog were originally posted on the now defunct Google+. With the demise of Google+, those images are no longer available.

For the sake of posterity, I am gradually re-uploading the images on Deviant Art. There are more than 1200 images to be posted, and it is time-consuming.

A bit of imagination on part of architect of this cogeneration plant in Nowon-gu, Seoul, South Korea, shows that the power plant buildings need not be drab. I wish I had seen this 2 decades ago when I was involved in power plant designs.

Cheongsapo Breakwater Lights at Haeundae, Busan, S. Korea. One is painted red and other is white but moonlight is great leveller and makes both these grey/black.
