Glass Tower with Cantilever, Manchester — Worm's Eye View

25 September 2019 · Manchester

Shot from directly below, the glass curtain wall climbs the frame until it narrows to a sharp vanishing point against an overcast Manchester sky. The cantilevered overhang cuts across the mid-frame as a flat black mass — unexpected, asymmetric, and compositionally decisive. A tower study earns its place when the architecture gives you something to work against; here the cantilever does that work, pulling the geometry out of the predictable and into genuine tension.
