The National Centre for Popular Music is too good to lose! Branson Coates said the centre would be β€˜pop looking, pop working’, with early designs including video screens set into the drums. I love that a pair of abseiling Elvis impersonators were used to reveal the envelope of the building in 1998

I’ve written about Arthur Quarmby’s pleasingly bizarre Mole Manor for the Twentieth Century Society, having a huge amount of fun reading about Quarmby’s hugely varied output in the process!

Stanton Williams’ Wellcome Trust Millennium Building at Wakehurst, the Royal Botanic Gardens’ East Sussex satellite. It’ll be 25 years old this year, but looks to be holding up well 🌱🌱🌱

Walking in the Yorkshire Dales today and stumbled across George Pace’s buildings at Scargill House completely by accident. The chapel is wonderful - it feels incredibly modern for a building completed over sixty years ago.
