I vastly preferred the old logo. It was refined. This looks like a ransom note.

Exploring a whole heap of medals in the strongroom at the School of Jewellery. These came from the industrialist Thomason but nobody seems to know quite how they got to the School.

 

They have not been stored very sympathetically but that is now to be changed. Pedro Cravinho from the BCU archives and Philip Attwood from the British Museum were on hand to help!

Brazil Pavilion at the Cité internationale universitaire de Paris (Lúcio Costa and Le Corbusier, 1954-1959). Carioca form-making, postwar Corbusian detailing - or something like that. The balconies, forming a deep brise-soleil, suggest Costa's Ministry of Education in Rio (on which Corbu also provided some consultation), and more closely resemble Corb's recent Unite d'habitation. The rubble wall to the right is something of an early Brutalist signature, though you could view it as an expansion of the rustic materiality explored much earlier in, e.g. the Villa de Mandrot, and the small, polemical rubble wall at the nearby Swiss Pavilion. Most interesting to me is the funky, irregular arrangement of the masses - I especially like how Costa hoists the main body of the dormitory over the lobby on those huge, saddle-like beams. This might make more sense as a breeze-guiding device in a tropical climate, but Paris does get hot in the summer, and meanwhile it makes the whole thing feel jazzier and less dumpy than the average mid-rise dorm of this era.
