The National Gallery, London England


William Wilkins was chosen over famed architect John Nash to design the London National Gallery , England's answer to France's "temple of the arts." As such, it was the subject of fierce debate over Classicism and the more innovative post-Gothic styles. Before its opening in 1835, Pugin blasted this project as degenerate. Sir John Summerson called the dome arrangement: "clock and vases on a mantelpiece, only less useful"

Renovations brought the style to a more contemporary aesthetic as some rooms were minimalised and some rooms were lavished. The Sainsbury wing in 1991 relinquished most ornamentation yet retained the mimicry of post-Classicism. Robert Venturi's post-modern addition did little to vary from the building's original intent, though Prince Charles called it "a monstrous carbuncle on the face of a much-loved friend."

Westminster Park Plaza Hotel, London England


BUJ architects and Uri Blumenthal architects designed the Park Plaza Westminster Bridge London, completed in 2010. The South Bank hotel has 1,200m2 of space, with a spacious ballroom, 31 meeting rooms, bars and restaurants, and lounges. It has a total 1,019 rooms. The LED grid pattern at the entrance continues at the ground floor lobby, with two large LED walls on either side of the staircase. The check-in desk glows orange with red glowing patterns behind it. This emhapsis on swanky lighting fills the hotel.

Natural light takes on a similarly synthetic nature as it is filtered through different colored shades of glass. These devices portrude from the curved exterior and suggest that the hotel's mission of synthetic comfort extends to the entire city. Just minutes from key downtown locations, it suggests a modern change to the nation.

Dove Foaming Makeup Remover review

I love a good makeup remover, knowing that I can get all my makeup off, a very important step to a good skin routine. When I was sent the Dove Foaming Makeup Remover I was excited to try it out.

Dove claims: Works by effectively removing even the heaviest make-up including waterproof mascara, eye make-up and foundation.

The makeup remover is a yellow see-through bottle with a pump. There is a stopper that you can attach underneath the pump if you want to travel with it.

The remover is liquid, but when pumped comes out as a foam. It has a gorgeous fruity smell that is really nice. The instructions say you can use it on wet or dry skin, by applying three pumps.

I use it in my shower, with a full face of makeup I apply three pumps and massage it around my face, even on the tops of my eyelids and it gives me the results I want. A clean makeup free face that feels soft and clean. Love it! If your not wearing a full face of makeup you can use two pumps, just depends on what will work for you. This works well on my eye makeup and does not leave a stingy feeling at all.

It really does remove the heaviest makeup and waterproof mascaras all in a few seconds. I keep this in my shower permanently and love how easy, convenient and great results I get.

I would definitely recommend this - a must have in the shower and a very easy and convenient way to remove your makeup.

The Dove Foaming Makeup Remover is a 155ml pump bottle and retails for $10.95 aud. You can buy it from supermarkets or department stores.

Barton Arcade, Manchester England


Corbett, Raby and Sawyer built the Barton Arcade in 1871, a modern Victorian shopping centre of cast iron and glass. The Milan Galleria was a big influence on this cutting edge civic space. The octoganal dome in the center is 106 ft high. The rich iron work was created by the Macfarlane’s Saracen Foundry in Glasgow. As arcades were popular venues at that time all around Europe, the architect for this project was Italian, the engineer French, and the sponsor British.

It has four floors with balconies overlooking the central street. St. Ann Square runs into the white painted front of the arcade. The original floor and shop fronts were never restored. The craze that followed the completion of the Barton Arcade fizzled as people viewed such a commercial venture as impractical... until the strip mall came along.

Channel 9, Docklands Melbourne Australia


Metier 3 Architects and Meinhardt consultants designed the facade for 717 Bourke Street in Melbourne's Docklands. The 17 floor building is 17m high and is joined by a pedestrian bridge and garage park. Fins project from the facade with a special frit pattern. Several floors tilt in opposite directions. This is only a facade effect, however, as the inside structure is a normal steel truss system. Its sustainable design earned it a 4 star green rating. This project was completed late 2010.
