Two weekends ago, bloggers from around the country descended on the nation's 6th ranked design city that is Columbus Indiana for a weekend of Modern Architecture touring, yep capital M, capital A touring. Before proceeding, many thanks must be given to Lynn Lucas & Cindy Frey of the Columbus Area Visitor Center for hosting all of us to such an elaborate weekend. Also many thanks to fellow MCM blogger Baz of Atomic Indy for all his organizational efforts.
Maybe you were following along the Columbus instant update Twitter rampage, maybe you have caught up a bit since having reviewed other blog posts to the weekend's design treats. Below are some teaser shots from the touring intended for 'wallpaper' use to wet your appetite a bit for some future Columbus posts. I've uploaded these as large as Blogger will take them, right click, set as background, at will.
