S ome parts of Kansas City are old, like this section from the early 1900's. Still in use, this could be characterized as a living museum. Just a few blocks away, ambitious modern construction underway, the fabric of the city a shifting patchwork of architectural styles. The textural overlay of a close-up structural surface adds atmospheric and expressive interest. Signs painted on walls of buildings imposed on a building wall offer symbolic layering.

“Architecture is a social act and the material theater of human activity.” - Spiro Kostof
