The interior of Crewe Hall in Cheshire, England, offers a captivating journey through centuries of history and opulence. Stepping inside, visitors are enveloped by the grandeur of its Tudor and Jacobean architecture, adorned with intricate woodwork, ornate plaster ceilings, and majestic stone fireplaces. Each room tells a story of bygone eras, from the lavish drawing rooms to the cozy libraries, exuding an air of timeless elegance. Rich tapestries, antique furniture, and exquisite artworks further enhance the atmosphere of refinement and prestige. Every corner reveals meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail, inviting exploration and admiration of this splendid heritage treasure.

My Flickr friend Kim's Pics and I went to the Canadian Museum for Human Rights. The architectural design of this building is amazing. The ramps seem to be a favorite for everyone. Kim noticed when you turn the ramps sideways they looked even cooler. Being a good friend I stole the idea. I don't think she will be posting much of the museum for awhile as she has her exciting trip photos to post first.

The repeating triangular rooflines of this Porto structure create a strong visual rhythm, echoing the steady beat of industrial architecture. Their sawtooth pattern, weathered with age, frames a fenced basketball court below, where hoops and painted lines suggest the energy of student life. The geometry of the roofs contrasts with the vertical stairway in the foreground, while the background high-rises add layers of modern urban density. Sunlight sharpens the angular forms, highlighting the harmony between function and design. This scene captures Porto’s balance of education, recreation, and architecture, where rhythm is expressed both in built form and community activity.

Excerpts from a letter by Peter Murray, the Editor of Architectural Design, addressed to Cedric Price, published at the end of the series ending with the pages shown here (AD 1972). This experience of making sense of information and quality for printing purposes obviously drove Peter mad with frustration.
“Dear Cedric
Thanks God that’s over! The hassle I’ve had… But it was worth it. We’ve shown your stuff as it really is – the good stuff and the bad – (you must admit those private houses are best forgotten!).- its knocked your standing as a STAR – but then too much realism does that to all of them anyway (a good thing)
Some of it has been difficult to understand for me and, most probable, impossible for the readers; but then, as has often happened in the past, things tend to fit in as time goes by and we can see that you’ve been right all the time.
In AD last month Martin Pawley quoted Rem Koolhaas (who the hell is he?) as saying that you were a prince desperately trying to become a frog – I thought that was very true – a dandy who only wears grey, an art boy who suppresses style, a communicator who purposefully makes comprehension a task, breakfast of champagne and grouse at the Savoy and lunch with the freaks at Phun City and a real concern with the communal life style while leading a life of individuality.
But you’ve seen a lot of things no one else has seen, you’ve influenced a lot of good people and almost surreptitiously turned your hairy ideas into well researched feasibility and along into mainstream of architectural thinking.
Yours truly,
Peter Murray”
Well said Peter.
