Castiglioni website

There is a decent website on the work of Achille Castiglioni.

When you go to Milan, do not miss a visit to his studio, now a museum (my ordinary photo below)


Arco standard lamp by Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni

Arco standard lamp by Achille & Pier Giacomo Castiglioni, 1962.

Bank Melli, Tehran by Utzon

Kristian Seier of Seier + Seier (mentioned below) was also kind enough to auto-stich 2 of my ordinary photos of Utzon's Bank Melli in Tehran to make one nice photo.

Hedmark Museum, Sverre Fehn

Peter Guthrie also has some very nice photos of Sverre Fehn's work at the Hedmark Museum in Norway. Try a Google Image search for "Hedmark Fehn".


Castelvecchio Museum, Carlo Scarpa






A few of my (ordinary) photos of the Castelvecchio Museum in Verona, and the renovation work by Carlo Scarpa. You'd  be better off doing a Google Image search of "Castelvecchio Scarpa". Look our especially for photos by Seier + Seier and Peter Guthrie.

There is an extraordinary digital archive of Scarpa's work at the Castelvecchio.

There are many very good books on Scarpa, but Richard Murphy's (tricky to find) book on the Castelvecchio is incredibly comprehensive and well illustrated. This edition in Italian only.








Approach to Central, 1912

There is also a great 1912 photo of the approach to Central from the North on Wikipedia

Paul Smith Albemarle St, 6a Architects

I'll put up a few links to projects Stephen showed on Friday.

First up, the Paul Smith Albermarle St store facade by 6a Architects.

























It's also worthwhile looking at their Raven Row project.

Here is also a link to a lecture by Tom Emerson of 6a.
