Look what I found today in the WEB ….

from eliinbar’s Sketchbook 2011 the “Conscious Inspiration Chain”

In this post the machine form of the Industrial structures, typical in the Oil refinery enterprises, I guess, is the inspiration source for Leonidov and Morphosis…..

Picture from the “The Charnel-house Blog “ by Ross Wolfe

Is it a coincidence that Leonidov choose the image of this Industrial structure for the Ministry of Heavy Industry?   I  guess not….
