vacancy and potential

vacancy and potential There is a universal fascination with urban decay, affectionately known as “ruin porn�. Many people find beauty, tragedy, and mystery in the crumbling and forgotten spaces. However we are hopeful that these images presented here can transcend this allure and bring some thought to the broken systems that created this beautiful ruin in the first place. Many schools do notfind a way to be reused and are left to fall apart.
