In an ongoing series, Belgian photographer Reginald Van de Velde explores the inner workings and mechanisms of cooling towers across Europe. Capturing abandoned ones, active ones, decommissioned ones, towers on maintenance and ones slated for demolition.
For Reginald, the interiors of cooling towers yield astonishing vistas, so grand and impressive. Reginald approaches these objects as landscapes. Searching for patterns, sense of scale, repetition, and disruption, rendering landscapes within. Van de Velde adds:
 
“One thing that fascinates me extremely is the fact that not a single cooling tower is the same?, Reginald says. ?Each and every one of them has a unique interior design and build! They all look the same from the exterior, but with each visit to a new cooling tower I?m always surprised by a different interior, time and time again.”
