Frank Gehry is to architecture as Tim Burton is to film.

My first collection for Tiffany was inspired by graffiti I saw on New York buildings.

Happy Birthday Frank Gehry
Today, February 28th, 2011, Pritzker Prize-winning architect, Frank Gehry, is turning 82 years old. His buildings have been the center of controversial discussion for years. Some of his buildings are loved and some are hated, but we have to recognize his work as one of the most important legacies of our age.
Also, he designs weird jewelry and we love him for it. Happy 82nd, Frank!
The western facade of Frank Gehry’s Dancing House: truly an exquisite post-modern building that complements Prague’s more prominent Baroque and Art Nouveau styles of architecture.
I’d like this in bracelet form as well.
