Engineering Is Art: 350 – 399
#EngineeringIsArt; an excuse to get up every morning and attempt to find a picture that does the built environment, and those who build it, some justice. Having made a return after my hiatus, the #EngineeringIsArt series is an ongoing attempt to celebrate the structure and construction of our infrastructure; rather than just the pretty architecture.
