Twentyman-Architecture

Some Exciting news......

Have been experimenting with 3D printing models of Twentyman Churches - Here is St Nicholas Radford (sadly no longer with us), fresh off the printer in the style of the cut away section in the book

As we missed out on StMartin of Tours in yesterday's podcast, Here's a magnificent 12' high sculpture by Don Potter in Park Fields, Wolverhampton from 1939 @GretelleMaitre

Aidan and Chris were back at the C20th Architecture Slam in Birmingham last week, talking about a new project..... the possibility of Volume 2 : The Secular architecture of Richard Twentyman - here's a little taster.....!

Nice to catch up with Chris today!

Chris and Aidan will be at Wolverhampton History Fair on Saturday with the book and some rare archive material. Please do drop in and say hello! friendsofwca.org/events.html

Well this is my weekend sorted, just had an initial skim and it's a sumptuous book. Can't wait to get stuck in @TwentymanArch

A lovely surprise in the post, the Church Architecture of Richard Twentyman, obviously a real architects book, loads of images including details and splendid diagrams by @AidanRidyard. Look forward to reading this!

@CSCA_Cambridge Maybe Croome?

Where are we today?

How many cinemas can boast a bumper crop of fruit each year? Depot's fruit trees have been heaving with ripe plums, and it's great to be able to offer our staff free seasonal produce as a perk! Keep your eyes peeled for an appearance on our menu soon... 😋

My copy arrived today - it looks amazing. Can’t wait to get into it properly. Would not know about Richard Twentyman if it weren’t for @C20Society, so thanks to them too!
