Albert Frey, Architect

I ran across this photo of the first Aluminium House designed by Swiss Architect Albert Frey (1930). He like many architects of his time was captivated by the movement which LeCorbusier started was a proponent of the new internationalism.....................sounds like the movement to global economy? Anyhow, I was able to see the original sketch done for this building which was in pencil. I will try and post it for those interested in how designed evolved from concept to reality. The end results was remarkable. The art of transitioning from idea to structure was very close to one another in this case. Simple yet artistic, we sometimes think that the time the designer spends playing with form is irrational, yet it was a way of thinking before computer visualization became a heavy favorite to those who would remove the human imagination from the public realm.
