Around this time last year I visited the London Barbican. Never having been before it was a thoroughly pleasant surprise for the architecturally minded of our little party. A fabulous example of urban design, softening brutalist concrete forms with hanging greenery and unusual plants.
The interior was dominated for me by peculiarly shaped apertures, formed by and through which the complexity of the three dimensional foyer and movement spaces was revealed as layered glimpses, flickering as distant people crossed the scene.
The changing coloured lighting embedded in the moulded concrete ceiling was incredible too…
