Neglected Elegance: the beauty of once-grand buildings now abandoned and decaying.
As decades pass, the styles and tastes of the era are artfully captured in the #architecture and furnishings of contemporary buildings. Now, these abandoned buildings serve as time capsules, distilling the essence of a bygone era. I have spent 10 years exploring their beauty, searching out forgotten gems around the world

Glasgow University looking beautifully lit up at nightfall a couple of days ago. Its lighting system can be changed to almost any colour and this is used to mark various events and support various campaigns. In this case, it's lit up purple in support of the UN's global campaign against gender-based violence and to remember the women and children who have died due to domestic abuse.

For a few years I had an office in the Frank Gehry-designed Stata Center at MIT. Here are some photos I took on a sunny autumn day using a film camera in 2005. This building had a lot of problems but it definitely made a statement. #architecture #FrankGehry #filmphotography

Frank Gehry, who died Dec. 5 at 96, long rejected the tidy ideals of modernist design and aimed instead to capture the messiness and democratic spirit of daily life. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/life/2025/12/06/style-design/frank-gehry-obituary/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #life #styledesign #frankgehry #architecture #obituaries

🇱🇧 An 1920s grand theatre, somewhere in Lebanon. This once-beautiful venue is now little more than a shell due to decades of civil war damage.

“In der Innenstadt” / In the city center
I’m not sure what the “center” of New York is. The actual geographical center of NYC is a random street in Brooklyn. Central Park is in the middle of Manhattan, and others may think of Times Square or Grand Central Terminal. But for me, the heart of the city is its public library.

Manoir Colimaçon (Spiral Manor). A late 19th-century mansion that lies abandoned somewhere in northern France.
Inside, the spiral stairway offers some wonderful photo opportunities! This helical service stair links all floors, built with blocky concrete columns and covered in small white tiles.
The first photo is looking up through the heart of the spiral staircase!
