Disposable Investors Architecture



You can tell by the colour. Turquoise. Windows, pillars, balustrades, all in turquoise. Cineplexes, hotels and shopping malls build on an investment plan. Stuff in as many add ons as you can to break even asap: a lounge bar in the movie theatre, a golf course at the spa and a fake beach bar around the mall! Of course, there is no penny left for details or, uh, material. Fake gold, faux finish and yes, turqouise handrails kill any glamour, soul or even sense. Needless to say, nobody with a sane mind would ever sit in that cocktail bar or lounge in front of a mall. Like all disposables, it will be what it is build for: trash.
