Today is World Environment Day but in short order we've been hit by news of a new major fish kill, taken to court by EU over continued illegal turf cutting, singled out as UN example of what not to do when it comes to data centres & falling short on climate action targets We can do better than this

The undercroft of the west range at Fountains Abbey, North Yorkshire, visited last month. 'The best preserved Cistercian monastery in the country... there is nowhere else in the country where one can so readily evoke an image of English monastic life' thought Pevsner.

I can’t think of a better way to pay tribute to the memory of Douglas Richardson than to post some photos of the Victorian architecture he so loved. I’ll start with a building he once described to me as “unutterably lovely”: the Oxford Museum, by Deane & Woodward, built 1855-60.

- I know all of you cherish Michelangelo, and so do I. Honestly, though, the clarity and the beauty of Brunelleschi's architecture is so inspiring for me that I tend to prefer him to his later counterpart. The City is a whole, and it is of much more value than the sum of its parts. 02/02

"Prouvé dedicated himself to making cheap homes, industrially produced for emergency situations: for refugees, soldiers, the displaced, dispossessed, those sent to colonial outposts. His deep social concern steered him away from the architect’s diet of one-off boutique houses towards basic shelter."
