Cold Windows

What has happened to bricks, stones, mortar? A great amount of our newest buildings in Dublin seem to comprise walls of windows constructed around the obligatory initial liftshaft and curvilinear S-shaped roofs. This image would have suited the architecture scavenging topic also.

Nice tones in this one! I guess everyone has a window seat :)

My eye keeps searching out the "Z" shape. A cleaning nightmare though I expect it's automated.

Sometimes they hit it, sometimes they don't ;-) I like the composition and seemingly duotone treatment.

Ah yes, a bit greenhouse, no doubt to make the workers feel like vegetables :)

Great shot Máire - like it a lot.

Not suited to our climate, imagine the bill for keeping those rooms cool in summer! But amazingly we have plenty of buildings similar... Superb shot Máire!

Yes, more window is hardly possible.
