paris' multicoloured towerblocks

just a quick post as i complete another more substantial one.

i wanted to bring these residential high-rise buildings to your attention due to the initially horrific exterior paint job which for some reason, after the shock sinks in, gives them a certain amount of charm. the group of towers are located in paris, were built in 1977 and go by the name of tours aillaud. if buildings could go paintballing, this is what the shit players would look like.

enjoy.
