Herzog & de Meuron beautifully designed parking structure, with no exterior walls constructed around buttresses. Its created a little controversy not for just been described as somewhere between prisons and toll plazas but also for the high price of parking.

Alexander McQueen _Backstage ’95

On the Anniversary of his passing, I wanted to show a series I had taken at the now infamous “Highland Rape” show at the V&A Museum in London 1995. I was a cocky lad, and with my camera under my coat I walked straight up to the tents and said I was was one of the dressers and waltz right in, randomly set my manual Nikon FM2 and started snapping away. It’s was such an adrenalin rush and I was completely oblivious to what I had experienced and the importance of what I had captured till years later.
