Freeform Actualization.
One of my interior bath installations,
in progress. All work was done on site and finished some time ago. (I have
to get some finished pictures, the walls were done in bas-relief).
Whirlpool jets were embedded directly during the molding process
and some Zypex (r) waterproofing was applied for extra measure.
The water inlet (perched on the side of the tub) was made of concrete
with a wide mouth to flow out a sheet like stream of water while
filling.
To Right: Kitchen
sink and counter built integrally together, using ferrocement. (1978).Porous
qualities of stone lend a soft feeling to
kitchen counters. And why worry about big house fires when they
are preventable with all stone construction? I'm
working on many methods for building houses, bath
and kitchen integrally, building multiple fixtures monolithically.
