architecture and buildings are so fucking fascinating to me because there’s something unmistakeably almost alive about them. they resemble bodies, especially when they’re abandoned and begin to decay, and the layers of material forming them fall apart at varying rates, exposing the ‘skeleton’ beneath the 'flesh’ of brick and mortar or whatever other material they’re built from. and like bodies, they sustain ecosystems of smaller things within them. they can get 'sick’ with rot and mold and other infestations, and their symptoms reflect diseases we suffer ourselves. they can even take on personalities; interpretations of them made by the people who know and love (or don’t) them. it’s so interesting how we build things that remind us of ourselves to keep us safe and take care of our needs. it really goes to show that we’re social beings that need each other to survive and live well.
