Hey, Grandma Moses started late!
In color.

The valley settled by the Norwegian immigrants. Notice how there are no signs of life--even tough guys stay inside when it so cold.
Sunset on a graveyard. Before power tools, no one would think to try to dig a grave in such hard ground. This fresh grave was covered with frozen dirt. I'll bet the graveside service was VERY short!
Our project nears completion. Note the extensive use of copper flashing. The pioneers certainly never used such luxury building materials but as the folks who first built this little church were the model for Thorstein Veblen's "Instinct of Workmanship," we assume they would have used copper if they had had access to it.
Did I mention that it was VERY cold when these pictures were taken? "Remember the I35W bridge--who needs terrorists when there are Republicans"

I appreciate your choice of the word 'delicate', particularly.
For the "greener" part of the audience :-) Freïburg, at the end of the Vauban district, a low energy consumption building...
The colored slabs hide a particle filter and a heat exchange system for natural ventilation between a busy street and the apartments. The main building (on the picture) shields smaller row houses (picture 2) from the phonic disturbance of the very motorized street !
