Lizzie Crook writes for Dezeen:
AI artist Thierry Lechanteur has transformed a speculative design by Antoni Gaudí for a supertall hotel in New York into a series of digital renders….
The monumental hotel design, named Hotel Attraction, was developed in 1908 for a pair of unknown businessmen, but was never realised…..
‘My work revisits architectural heritage through visual fictions,’ Lechanteur told Dezeen…..
‘For the centenary of Gaudí’s death, I wanted to extend his dream rather than reconstruct his drawings: a free interpretation of the tower he imagined for New York, grown from his architectural vocabulary rather than from any single document,’ Lechanteur continued.
