Day 572, Lines, lines, more lines, the tower


In the quest for ever more obscure rectilinear spaces here we have one less obscure.*

There are landscape windows commanding magnificent views of the surrounding grounds.

There are pillars, supports of the great edifice, the one true tower.

And there's more of this linear stuff, it's the parquet floor.

No triangles, lozenges or herringbone here, oh no, it's a very simple rectangular design.  

A design done purposefully to represent the organised and directed nature of the tower and the association with other activities on this floor.

If you want to know more about the great history of parquetry, why not visit the library, it's only over there.

Unless of course you want a public library, then tough tit proles the Tories aren't keen on that shit.**


* What a cop out.
** Honestly, some people will shoehorn this stuff in anywhere.
