Fave Architects - 'Raymond Hood'
Had to do a report on him, and I fell in love with his concepts, and attention to detail.
For example, this is the American Radiator Building in NYC.
He wanted the building to be black, so that when occupants turned on the lights at night, the building itself would 'disappear' and the gold friezes would glow like a 'radiator coil'.
He was also involved with building Rockefeller Center, and helped bring the Art Deco/Greek Mythology aesthetic to the project.
