  • This is an ongoing project exploring vast industrial structures located within the Bay Area in California. These massive structures of concrete, glass and steel were created without consideration for their esthetic impact. They are functional, utilitarian, engineered structures that are mostly free from the language of design and architecture. But their use and the passage of time have left a rich and complex patina upon them.

    They are often ignored as industrial blight; but they serve as witnesses to the historical transformations taking place in our urban environments.

    One common thread that runs through this series is an exploration of scale and isolation. In an effort to capture these massive structures, their rich detail, and their rootedness to the ground, they have been isolated from their immediate surroundings.
