Weekly Photo Challenge: Round
the selfridges department store in birmingham – designed by future systems – 15000 aluminium discs covered the entire building, no windows… not good if you have to work there, not too bad for photo challenges.

I lived in Brum for 6 years! Your photo made me think back fondly on my time there. We used to affecionatley refer to Selfridges as ‘the whale’!
six years? hopefully you’re now a villa fan. 🙂

Love the how the ridges are gently curving around.
yeah, it’s like that all the way around, like a large blob.
Nice shot! I had to Google it and look at the whole building. That was one crazy design company!
thank you! they are definitely a little bit over the top with their crazy ideas.

Wowza – what an interesting shape for a building! When I see structures like this I always wonder how it’s even possible to build such things! Great, great shot! 🙂
it is indeed quite an interesting concept, it looks better in photographs than the real thing.
thank you for your comments, it’s quite encouraging especially when i know your photos are so brilliant!
i googled this to understand your story + picture. very cool.
thank you PanicMoster!
