Little project I’ve been working on.

Hi everybody!
In the past few weeks me and /u/archineering have been working on creating user flairs for this sub. We have created multiple flairs, each one with the name of an "important" modernist architect with the intention of allowing each user to choose a flair that has the name of his favorite modernist architect.
For those unfamiliar with user flairs, you can select them on pc by expanding the "Community Options" on the right side of the screen. On reddit mobile, you should go to the subreddit list page, click the ... menu on the top right and select "change user flair."
Right now there are 31 different flairs available for you to choose, covering most of the known names of modernism (at least we think so). If anybody thinks that there is a relevant architect missing, please tell us and we will add him (or her) to the list.
Thank you!

For a school project, I’m interested in making a mockup model of Kahn’s Richards Laboratories window detail where the glass and metal framing is sandwiched between the brick veneers. I can’t find any construction drawings for this connection online and would appreciate any advice/ help🙏🏼

The Raja Saab Chalet is a prominent example of mid-century modernist architecture located along the former Acapulco Beach in Ouzai, Lebanon. Designed by Lebanese architect Ferdinand Dagher and completed in 1953, the structure is widely recognized for its distinctive, futuristic shape, which earned it the local nickname of the "flying saucer" or "UFO."
Architecturally, the chalet is elevated entirely off the ground by four flared concrete pillars, lifting the cylindrical main body to maximize views of the Mediterranean coast. Access to the elevated living space is provided through a central, exposed spiral staircase wrapped in a minimal steel mesh. Inside, the layout features a ring-shaped floor plan that surrounds this central core, utilizing built-in mid-century fixtures and curved windows to optimize space and light. The building stands as a key historical artifact from Lebanon’s era of pre-war coastal development and architectural experimentation.
