Good to see this update re #prestonbusstation to the display at ⁦@AvoncroftMuseum⁩ Bromsgrove

Did I say we saw tiles??

Love this in the modernist apartments!

And of course we’ve seen more times this morning!

In Faro with Richard Walker leading @c20society trip on the roof of @themodernist hotel with owner Chris organiser of Faro Modernist weekend— running for 3rd time this year

In Faro (Portuguese Algarve) prepping for C20 tour led by artist Richard Walker— starts tonight!

Great to be at Palace of Westminster with @c20society this week. Helping to launch vital report by Purcell on Listed Buildings with RAAC & making case for VAT cut on building repair! More RAAC discussion at my Conservation of Historic Concrete course @westdeancollege in July

In case you missed this one earlier today…

Really important for us to get out and see buildings AND meet the people who use and care for them— well done Coco— you pack a lot in!

Inspiring day with @hughpearman interviewing potential new @C20Society trustees, had perfect lunchtime break— walked to see Ibrahim Mahama wrapping of @BarbicanCentre billowing in a warm breeze

Love that @MailOnline is featuring Thaddeus Zupanic’s fab book— big interview with him in next C20 magazine and talk in October dailymail.co.uk/travel/article…

Here’s the Embassy Court view before the storm blew in,…

At Embassy Court Brighton by #Wellscoates. Amazing views out those corner windows, but taking a pounding from salt spray—tough location for a II* concrete building experimental in its day!

At @Tate Britain for launch of Keith Piper’s video response to Whistler’s restaurant mural— slightly underwhelming, installation needs gap between showings with Whistler illuminated— point is that this it is a significant artwork which is why the racist content needs addressing

Dank and soggy but beautiful walk in Kent yesterday—enjoyed this bench by ⁦⁦@CharlesHollArch⁩ at Waldershare Park— a bit slimy to sit down….

Why is the bottom half of the E&Cs Faraday Memorial looking all matte?

📻Tune in to @BBCFrontRow this evening from 19:15 to hear C20 Director @catherinecroft discuss contemporary attitudes to brutalism, and the proposed new Museum of Brutalist Architecture. bbc.co.uk/programmes/m00…

My tube platform— who knew!

At Henry Moore Institute Leeds to interview Dorian Crone, son of artist Egon Altdorf about his father’s work tonight— amazing woodcuts as well as welded iron sculptures

My review of @royalacademy Herzog de Meuron exhibition in October issue of @BurlingtonMag burlington.org.uk/current-issue?… — my conclusion? meaty, inspiring content, but not very accessible. Should architects be curating their own work?
