photo post – architecture –old /new






yesterday was a long day spent driving to and through different parts of the city. from the neo-old of hiranandani complex at powai- a spectacular skyline ravaging the lake and the mountains, to jogeshwari vikhroli lonk road where the neo-new architecture of pseudo-deconstruction makes a twisted cube, to opera house where the old gleams in the evening light; and some more at kemps corner and neapensea road where old and new collide against one another in spectacular ways. i was asked once a little testily - what is this obsession with ‘newness’ that i have? how an i not when the new takes on such strange and interesting forms all around me?
