A Musical Place


Hey there, lovely readers of Design Tavern. I’m Jenn, a new addition, and will be guest blogging from time to time. {Thanks Henry for giving me the opportunity!} I’m excited to be able to share my architecture and design finds with you, since I usually write on other subjects {mostly fashion, art, and life.}

I stumbled across these images and figured it would be a good start:


This violin and piano shaped building is located in the An Hui province of China. The glass violin contains an escalator, and the building contains city plans to showcase growth within the region. As far as buildings go, I think it’s rather fun and amazing.

Also, I did a violin inspired post at my own blog with a playlist for your enjoyment. {Did you like that shameless plug?}

Jenn Ortiz is a graduate of the University of Florida with degrees in History and Latin American Studies with hopes to pursue a PhD in Child Development. She currently writes fashion and style for The Little Pink Book and Wishpot’s Fashion Blog. She also runs her own blog, {Bits of Beauty}.
