Building history
I came across this image of Jaime Drake's renovation of New York's City Hall and I was quite taken with it. There is something very American in this room; things are well made and respectful-the color even being a homage to Washington's Mount Vernon....and there is a hint of modernist functionalism in that the furniture in the room is just there to work not to look pretty-no excess. Let's bring back that attitude.
