For this edition, we asked staff and contributing photographers to share architecture they have encountered globally.

Meera Gupta, Video Editor

Architecture has always been pivotal to the way I look at the world. Both my parents being architects taught me from a young age to appreciate details in the buildings that surround us. These photographs were taken at Storm King Art Center, a large sculpture garden located in Orange County, NY.

Last summer, I traveled across Japan with my father. While visiting Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka, I was amazed by the beautiful structures I encountered. As an international student, I spend so much time away from my family that we strive to make every moment count when we are together. This trip definitely was one of the most special moments I’ve had with my dad.

On a beautiful clear day in the Spanish city of Barcelona, I snapped some photos of buildings that blend urban life and creativity.

What began as an impromptu barrier after NYU leadership authorized a police sweep of a pro-Palestinian encampment — resulting in the arrests of over 130 community members — has since become a permanent fixture at Gould Plaza.

At the heart of New Orleans’ French Quarter sits the Cathedral-Basilica of St. Louis King of France — the oldest cathedral still being used in the United States. The photo depicts St. Anthony’s Garden, located in the rear facade of the cathedral and marked by a statue of Jesus Christ with his arms open.

I took these over the summer on a trip to Spain. I was fascinated by Barcelona’s perfectly symmetrical layout and loved capturing the details of every building in Toledo.

Saya Quisbert, Contributing Photographer

Being a native New Yorker, I often forget to appreciate the architecture that is present around the city. For this column, I made it my goal to step into places I don’t often go in order to be able to properly appreciate famous landmarks and places that I had only seen in passing.

Neil Tawney, Photo Editor

I’ve always been interested in how geography can define architecture. On the warm shores of Greece, volcanic rock, wood and bright colors comprise seaside towns and define the Mediterranean style.

Kiran Komanduri, Sports Editor

I love all of the twisting, colorful architecture of Coney Island. It looks even more surreal backed by clean high-rises and a serene beach.

Zara Surti, Photo Editor

Traveling over the past few years has made me come to appreciate architecture, and how it is such an important element in informing the character of a place. It has steadily become one of my favorite forms to photograph. These photos have been taken in Paris and Agra, India.
