Architecture with, Photographs of Abandoned Buildings

Christian Richter's love for Architectural Photography, started when he was younger and was given a camera as a present.  Amongst the things he is passionate about photographing, abandoned buildings are right up-there.  He often travels around Europe, to capture the perfect scene to immortalise with his trusty camera.  This is an exert from the the artist's site: "I simply adore old decaying architecture, their patterns and textures – they remind me that everything is impermanent."

Paris' Ghost Metro - Underground

Upcoming Mayoral Elections, in March, in Paris will decide if candidate Nathalie Kosciusko-Morizet will get the go ahead to reconstruct abandoned underground stations in Paris.  Kosciusko-Morizet in conjunction with Architects Manal Rachdi and  Nicolas Laisné, have come up with sketches of possible uses of these spaces, that are currently being used to shoot films and as a storage area for the transport System NKM.  Some of the proposals include Pool, Restaurant, Auditorium, Theatre, Nightclub, Art Gallery.  In the article we have included some of these sketches and images what they look like now.  Fantastic use of abandoned spaces.  To get the best effect, once in the article you can enlarge the image by pressing it (not the first one).
