🌿Nature finds a way inside this abandoned 1950s glass factory. Once a prestigious multinational HQ, the site now sits derelict and left to the elements. Inside the Modernist concrete shell are several massive internal atriums. Now, miniature worlds of greenery. A happy byproduct of decades of unchecked growth that is slowly engulfing this lost place.

An ode to Modernist concrete. Rachid Karami International Fair, Tripoli, Lebanon
This collection of modernist architectural forms was the result of an international collaboration between famed Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer and Lebanese engineers. The architecture is a blend of Brazilian Modernism and Lebanese styles.
Or, that was the plan. Sadly, this ambitious site remains a sad futuristic ruin frozen in time.

#CasaPound takes its name from #EzraPound, the US #modernist #poet who collaborated with #FascistItaly during #WorldWarII. The group was founded in December 2003 when activists occupied a state-owned building in #Rome's #Esquilino district.
