A Pavilion on Roosevelt Island by Somewhere Studio

Salvage Swings, a project by Fayetteville, Arkansas-based architecture

practice Somewhere Studio, is the winner of this year’s City of Dreams

Pavilion competition, which aims to encourage sustainability among

architects and designers. (record senior editor Joann Gonchar, FAIA,

served on the design jury.) Using scrap timber salvaged from a con-

struction project at the University of Arkansas, the team built 12 boxy

modules on New York’s Roosevelt Island; each frames a single swing.

The side-by-side structures, with roofs alternately sloping different

ways, arranged in a triangle, enable games such as hide-and-seek.

Mark Dion: Follies at Storm King

“My concept of a folly is somewhere between the traditional one of

the aristocracy, and the vernacular,” says artist Mark Dion. His 13

highly diverse structures at Storm King—from a glass menagerie

and a grotto embedded in the landscape to a reed-clad hunting

blind and a truck that serves as a mobile laboratory—are instruc-

tional and enchanting, especially within the context of the Hudson

River Valley art center’s 500 rolling acres and its monumental

sculptures. On view until November 11, this exhibition includes

pieces created and modified over the last 25 years, as well as a new

site-specific work entitled Storm King Environmental Field Station,

DREAM IT. SEE IT. BELIEVE IT.

LORIN

When you first visualize Lorin’s Stainless Anodized Aluminum

you can see the rich hues of bronze and grey and enjoy the

deep metallic reflection, depending on the color you choose.

Lorin’s anodized stainless finish is not a coating. Coatings

just wear away. Anodizing is an electro-chemical process that

builds an anodic layer from the aluminum, thus protecting the

aluminum from the elements as well as everyday use. Lorin’s

Anodized Stainless Collection delivers the absolutely

stunning appearance that you require with demanding

applications such as consumer goods, architectural, and

transportation. So come and take a look at Lorin’s Stainless

Anodized Aluminum ...

Polished, powerful, and dynamic.

That’s the beauty of anodized.

REFLECT YOUR VISION.
