Frank Gerhy...Genuis?


So i went to see this finally with Lucy and it was AMAZING! It was such a sunny day and walking through Hyde Park to get to it i felt like i was about to discover something marvellous and true to form Gerhy didn't disappoint. It's unusual for him to build in wood as normally he works in aluminium and you attach his works with smooth lines, polish. steel and curves. So this was a refreshing change. it was nice to be able to sit there with a cup of tea and just take it in, in your own time. I think it would change at night as well under the stars and in the rain it would be almost magical. I'm going to try and go back next time I'm near. Its his first build in the UK and its just made me fall in love with his designs even more. Worth going that extra mile for him don't you agree...?

It's always worth going the extra mile Zoe; be it up hills in LA or hiking round London parks! Although I must say i'm a little disappointed you didn't use one of our amazing disposable camera pics! ;)
