UK - London - LSE Saw Swee Hock Student Centre 02_DSC4043

I've photographed the LSE Saw Swee Hock Student Centre before but don't think I did this RIBA Stirling Prize 2014 nominated building justice.

 

I returned when I was in London last weekend to try again and this time the conditions helped me get some shots which capture some of the crispness of the architecture.

A bit about the Architects O'Donnell & Tuomey from Wikipedia : "The practice became widely known when their Irish Film Centre and Gallery of Photography won the Downes Medal, in 1992 and 1996 respectively. They have since designed a number of notable buildings, including the Lewis Glucksman Gallery at University College Cork (commemorated by An Post stamp in 2013 ), the Irish installation at the Venice Biennale 2004, and the Ranelagh Multidenominational School, which won the RIAI Triennial Gold Medal in 2005. Five of their projects were shortlisted for Stirling Prize: Ranelagh Multidenominational School in 1999, Lewis Glucksman Gallery in 2005, Lyric Theatre (Belfast) in 2011, An Gaeláras Irish Language Centre in 2012 and London School of Economics Saw Swee Hock Students' Centre in 2014."
