Robert's Ramblings

There is a wonderful skeleton of scaffolding, steel and concrete which has emerged on the Adelaide skyline at the western end of North Terrace. I say 'wonderful' not in any one sense but for many reasons.

First and foremost in the context of this image, it looks fascinating! I love the intricate construction of supporting structures surrounding an emerging new building. It reminds me of Mechano construction sets I played with as a child.

Next is what it means for Adelaide and South Australians. This new building will eventually be the new home for the inaugural SAHMRI. (South Australian Health and Medical Research Institute) and I just love what this means for the advancement of medical science and our commitment to it.

Lastly I have it on good authority that this will be one of Adelaide's most amazing architecturally functional buildings ever created. I can't wait to see it grow its skin! See http://www.sahmri.com/.
