Prickly Elegant

Tokyo: prickly window
 

Gold spikes/pyramids on this window of an okura converted into a fashion retail outlet, Omotesandso. The difference between prickly architecture, such as these spikes and a cage protecting this CCTV camera in Brighton, and a more elegant hack, that serves a purpose, but doesn’t it in style.
