Summary edit

Description

florey building, oxford, england 1966-1971 architect: james stirling, 1926-1992.


after the rain.

apologies for the forced perspective of this autostitch, but this is how close to the florey you come as you walk along the isis.

the fence suggests that stirling's ambition to make the courtyard an open, semi-private space has failed. is that because of crime rates in oxford, is it to keep out rampant architecture students, or is it rather an expression of the hostility of the owners to their own building, famously unable to keep out rain, wind, noise, cold?
