A visit to Hampton Court Castle Gardens & Parkland on the August Bank Holiday Monday.
The main events on this Bank Holiday were Jousting & Birds of Prey.
A look at the castle. It dates to the 15th century (and is a century older than the other Hampton Court in London).
It has been beside the River Lugg for 600 years. Built by Sir Rowland Lenthall on land that was a gift from King Henry IV.
The Lenthall's stayed here for 300 years. In the 19th century it was bought by Richard Arkwright. His descendants lived here until 1912.
In the 20th century it went through various owners until the American millionaire Robert Van Kampen bought it in the 1990s. It was sold again after his death.
The castle is a Grade I listed building.

House. Circa 1427-36 for Sir Roland Lenthall (who had a licence to
crenellate in 1434). Altered early C18 by Colen Campbell for Lord Coningsby
and remodelled and restored in the early C19 by Sir Jeffrey Wyatville for
Richard Arkwright. Sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings, lead and plain
tiled roofs behind embattled parapets with groups of C19 circular stacks.
Quadrangular plan representing the original C15 layout the main surviving
parts of which include the gatehouse, the chapel and the porch. The early
C18 alterations included the remodelling of the south front and additions
to the south-east and south-west. The C19 remodelling included the partial
refenestration of the structure, the heightening of the main ground floor
rooms to the south and east and numerous additions. Two and three storeys
with cellar and chamfered plinth. North entrance front: main part of 1:3:1:3:1
bays composed of large central rectangular gatehouse with flanking three-bay
ranges terminating in small square towers. Gatehouse: three levels rising
above rest of building with machicolated parapet on moulded corbelling. Two
centred arched gateway beneath a square head with quatrefoil tracery in the
spandrels, moulded jambs and a hoodmould with head stops. The reveals are
grooved for a portcullis and the double doors are original and have nail-
studded battens on square framing with a wicket in each fold. The archway
is flanked by cruciform loopholes. Above is a C19 archway with a four-centred
head, incorporating both upper levels and having a 4-light mullioned window to
each level sub-divided by a stone panel with a shield relief frieze. The lower
window interrupts a string course. In the left side of the gatehouse is
ground floor cruciform loophole and a cusped lancet beneath a square head with
a hoodmould on the upper levels. To the right side is a similar window at the
intermediate level and a bartizan tower in the angle containing a staircase and
having three loopholes. The south side of the gatehouse has an original tall
niche with canopied head and vaulted soffit and within, above the ground floor,
is a two-bay quadripartite stone rib vault with foliated bosses. The flanking
three-bay ranges: the bays adjacent to the gatehouse are carried up higher than
the rest of the ranges to form small square towers. The left range is of two
storeys divided by a string course. There are buttresses with offsets
articulating the bays and flanking two ground floor windows. There are three
first floor windows and a further window on the second floor of the tower.
The tower terminating this range to the left is of two levels with a string
course and has a window on both levels. All windows are cusped lancets with
square heads and hoodmoulds with head stops. The right range, is of three
storeys with a continuous hoodmould to the ground floor windows. There are
two 2-light windows with square head on each floor. The heightened bay adjacent
to the gatehouse has a cusped lancet (similarly detailed to those in the left
range) on each floor. The square tower terminating the range to the right is
of two levels divided by a string course and has a similar lancet on the second
level. The chapel adjoins the east end of the north front. It has a gabled
roof with an east end plain parapet and finial and side parapets pierced with
a trefoil frieze (probably a C19 alteration). It has a continous four-bay
nave and chancel. At the east end are diagonal buttresses with offsets ter-
minating in tall pinnacles. There is a 5-light east window and three 3-light
north windows , all with pointed heads and hoodmoulds. There is also a blocked
window to the south-east. The east, south and west front retain no medieval
features being largley refaced and C19 windows inserted. On the south side
of the courtyard is the C15 porch. Square plan. Two storeys with machicolated
parapet and diagonal corner buttresses with offsets. There is a four-centred
archway with a hoodmould and a C19 doorway, similarly arched, with traceried
infill between the two archways. There is an original 4-light window above
with a sill string. The quadripartite vaulted cloisters built around the
courtyard are C19 additions. Adjoining the west elevation of the house is a
service range also of quadrangular plan and of one and two storeys, similarly
detailed to the main building. This service range has a long north-west wing
incorporating the former stables and servants' quarters. This is largely C19
and since altered. However, the stables are probably of C16 origin; they are
of rubble with ashlar dressings with a machine tiled roof and gable-end parapets
with round finials. Five bays aligned north/south with projecting central
wing on east side. Single storey and attic. Main east elevation: the central
gable end has a blocked opening on each floor level and a right side door. The
flanking bays are articulated by narrow buttresses and have large lunette windows,
two with doorways beneath. Interior: main house has an early C18 open well stair-
case west of the gatehouse with a scrolled wrought iron balustrade and moulded
handrail. East of the gatehouse is an early C18 marble fireplace with fluted
columns and a coat of arms. The chapel retains part of its C15 ribbed ceiling
which is elaborately moulded and painted with ornately carved bosses and there
is some original stained glass in the north windows. According to a letter of
Vanbrugh's, Talman may have made some plans for the remodelling of Hampton
Court and the illustration in Campbell's Vitruvius Britannicus, Vol II, 1717,
might represent Talman's scheme for a medievalised symmetrical facade. Early
C18 illustrations by Kip and Knyff and later C18 and early C19 illustrations,
for example that by Neale of 1826, suggest the building may have a further
complicated architectural history. (RCHM Herefs III, p 68-70; BoE, p 141-2).

When I clambered down from the former trackbed to examine this old underbridge at Kinalty Haughs, I was surprised to find the soffit shored up by this elaborate timber framework. It looked to have been there for a very long time: presumably a 'temporary' remedial measure undertaken while the main line was still functioning, reducing the spacious arch to the dimensions of a creep.
Superbly designer finished second floor, 120 square meters, 2 bedroom apartment in a quiet street in Hamrun a corner away from all amenities. Very well lit with gypsum soffits everywhere and plastered walls following a complete overhaul in 2008.
Layout consists of kitchen living dining, large master bedroom with laundry closet and ensuite with bath, spare toilet with shower and second bedroom with closet/box room. Long balcony on facade and nice wide terrace at back for clothes hanging. Gres ceramic and laminate parquet flooring. Being sold as fully furnished and ready to move into, including quality appliances (Bosch, Ariston and Hoover), light fittings. New aluminium apertures throughout, with travertine marble all around the windows.

I am quite certain that the meandering soffit dates to the A&P era of this store. May not date to 1963; I'm pretty sure this store was expanded slightly when a new facade was added circa 1970. Possibly the former produce department?
Also worth noting: older Archway cookie display and a second newer freezer case.

A visit to the Bishops Palace, Wells and the gardens here.
The Bishop's Palace and accompanying Bishops House at Wells in the English county of Somerset, is adjacent to Wells Cathedral and has been the home of the Bishops of the Diocese of Bath and Wells for 800 years. It has been designated by English Heritage as a Grade I listed building.
Building of the palace started around 1210 by Bishops Jocelin of Wells and Reginald Fitz Jocelin. The chapel and great hall were added by Bishop Robert Burnell between 1275 and 1292. The walls, gatehouse and moat were added in the 14th century by Bishop Ralph of Shrewsbury. The Bishops House was added in the 15th century by Bishop Thomas Beckington. The great hall later fell into disrepair and was partially demolished around 1830.
The palace was originally surrounded by a medieval deer park. When the walls were built, streams were diverted to form the moat as a reservoir. In the 1820s, the grounds within the walls were planted and laid out as pleasure grounds by Bishop George Henry Law, who created a reflecting pond near the springs. Parts of the buildings are still used as a residence by the current bishop, however much of the palace is now used for public functions and as a tourist attraction.

I
Cathedral Bishopric established in 909. Saxon cathedral built, nothing now visible (excavations 1978/79). See transferred to Bath in 1090. Church extended and altered in 1140, in Norman style, under Bishop Robert Lewes; part of this lies under south transept of the present church.
Present church begun, at east end, in 1176 and continued to consecration in 1239, but with substantial interruption from 1190-1206. Designer Adam Lock, west front probably by Thomas Norreys. Nave, west front (but not towers), north porch, transepts, and part of choir date from this phase. Bishopric becomes Bath and Wells in 1218. Central tower begun 1315, completed 1322. Designer Thomas Witney Lady Chapel begun 1323, completed c 1326. Probably by Thomas Witney. At this stage the Chapel a free-standing structure to the east of the original (1176) east end. Extension of choir and presbytery in 1330 to connect with the new Lady Chapel. Designer Thomas Witney, but presbytery vaults by William Joy.
Following signs of dangerous settlement and cracking under the new tower, the great arches and other work inserted to prevent collapse in 1337; designer William Joy. (The St Andrew's arches known as strainer arches). South-west tower begun in 1385 to design of William Wynford, completed c 1395. North-west tower built 1410. Tracery added to nave windows in 1410. Central tower damaged by fire in 1439; repair and substantial design modification (designer not known) completed c 1450. Stillington's chapel built 1477, (off east cloister) designer William Smyth, who also designed the fan vault to the main crossing. The chapel was demolished in 1552.

North chancel aisles: the east bay has a shallow two-centre arched five-light window with Decorated tracery, steeper three-light windows to the west bays, the transept chapel window of four-lights with reticulated tracery. The early C14 east end of the chancel has flying buttresses to the gable and three east bays; the east end has a five-light window with Decorated tracery, including two mullions up to the soffit, and a raised surround beneath a shallow canted parapet, with the coped gable set back and lit by four lozenge windows divided by a wide Y-shaped mullion; the north clerestory windows of three-lights, the three to the east have ogee hoods, the three late C12 west and two north transept windows linked by a continuous hood mould.
North Transept and nave aisles have a plinth, sill band, corbel table and parapet, with wide buttresses separating aisle lancet windows with inserted early C15 two-light Perpendicular tracery, and a clerestory with similar moulding and fenestration. Transept gable in three stages, with clasping buttress turrets and sill bands: three lower-stage windows and one to the end of west aisle, middle stage has a blind arcade of six lancets, the middle four truncated beneath three tall stepped lancets to upper stage, with similar blind panels paired to the turrets, and medallions to the spandrels; a weathered band beneath an arcade of stepped blind lancets, and panelled turret pinnacles with octagonal caps, a third to the flanking aisle; the right-hand turret has a good c 1475 clock with paired soldiers above striking two bells, and a crenellated canopy. Nine-bay nave aisle, ten-bay clerestory, of which the two windows flanking the transept re-entrant cut off above a mid C14 relieving arch.

Crossing tower has a c 1200 blind arcade to a string level with the roof ridge; upper section 1313, remodelled c 1440, has ribbed clasping buttresses to gabled niches with figures and pinnacles with sub-pinnacles; each side of three bays separated by narrow buttresses with pinnacles, a recessed transom with openwork tracery beneath and louvred trefoil-headed windows above, gabled hoods and finials. Corbels within for a spire, destroyed 1439.
West front screen is a double square in width, divided into five bays by very deep buttresses, with the wider nave bay set forward. The towers stand outside the aisles, the design of the front continued round both ends and returned at the rear. Statues of c 1230-1250, to an uncertain iconographic scheme. Divided vertically into three bands, beneath a central nave gable and Perpendicular towers; arches with originally blue Lias shafts, now mostly Kilkenny marble, and stiff leaf capitals. A tall, weathered plinth, with a central nave entrance of four orders with paired doorways and quatrefoil in the tympanum containing the seated Virgin with flanking angels, and smaller aisle entrances of two orders. Above is an arcade of gabled hoods over arches, containing paired trefoil-headed statue niches with bases and fifteen surviving figures; two-light Perpendicular tracery windows between the buttresses outside the nave; sunken quatrefoils in the spandrels, which cut across the corners of the buttresses. The third and principal band contains three tall, slightly stepped nave lancets, paired blind lancets between the outer buttresses, with narrower arches flanking them and to the faces and sides of the buttresses, all with banded Lias shafts and roll-moulded heads; the three arches to the sides and angled faces on the south-west and north-west corners have intersecting mouldings as in the north porch. All except the window arches contain two tiers of gabled statue niches with figures, taller ones in the upper tier, and across the top is an arcade of trefoil-headed statue niches with seated figures and carved spandrels. The nave buttresses have gabled tops containing cinquefoil-arched niches, and tall pinnacles with arched faces and conical tops; above the nave is a three-tier stepped gable with a lower arcade of ten cinquefoil-arched niches containing seated figures, a taller arcade of twelve niches with c 1400 figures of the Apostles, and a central top section with outer trefoil arches, corner sunken quatrefoils; the central oval recess with cusped sides and top contains a 1985 figure of Christ in Judgement beneath a pinnacle, with crosses and finials on the weathered coping. The Perpendicular towers continue the buttresses up with canopied statue niches to their faces and blank panelling to the sides, before raking them back into deep angle buttresses; between are a pair of two-light west windows, louvred above a transom and blind below, with a blind arcade above the windows, and a low crenellated coping.
INTERIOR: Lady Chapel: An elongated octagon in plan, with triple vault shafts with spherical foliate capitals to a tierceron vault forming a pattern of concentric stars, with spherical bosses and a paint scheme of 1845; the three west arches with Purbeck marble shafts onto the Retroquire have blind arched panels above; beneath the windows is a sill mould with fleurons, and a bench round the walls. Stone reredos has six statue niches with crocketed canopies and smaller niches in between, with four C19 sedilia with ogee-arched and crocketed canopies and a C14 cusped ogee trefoil-arched south doorway; C19 encaustic tiles.
The Retroquire extends laterally into east chapels each side and transeptal chapels: all with ogee-arched piscinae with crockets and finials, with a complex asymmetrical lierne vault on Purbeck marble shafts and capitals. The three east bays of the choir added early C14, and the high lierne vault of squares extended back over the three late C12 west bays, on triple vault shafts, Purbeck marble with roll-moulded capitals for the C14 and limestone with stiff leaf capitals for the C12; above the two-centre aisle arches and below the clerestory walk is a richly-carved openwork grille of statue niches with canopies, containing eight early C20 figures across the east end; clerestory walk has ogee-arched doorways. Rich canopies over choir stalls on Purbeck marble shafts, and five sedilia with enriched canopies. Ogee-arched doorways with crockets and pinnacles each side of the choir give onto the aisles, which have lierne vaults forming hexagons.
Transepts: Three bays deep and three wide, with cluster columns and stiff leaf capitals, including some fine figure carving in the south-west aisle, paired triforium arches between the vault shafts; the chancel aisles entered by C14 ogee-arched doorways with cinquefoil cusps and openwork panels each side; the north transept has a doorway from the east aisle with a depressed arch and moulded sides with a panelled Perpendicular ridge door, and Perpendicular panelled stone screens across the arcade; the south transept has an early C14 reredos with cusped ogee arches. The openings to the crossing contain inserted cross ogee strainer arches with triple chamfered moulding, on the west one an early C20 raised crucifix and flanking figures on shafted bases, and the roof has late C15 fan vaulting with mouchettes to the springers.
Nave: Ten-bay nave has compound columns of eight shafts with stiff leaf capitals enriched with figures, a continuous hood mould, with carved stops until the four west bays, which also have more richly-carved stiff leaf; a continuous triforium arcade of roll-moulded lancets with moulded rere arches, three to each bay, with enriched tympana and paterae in the spandrels above, carved corbels and springers to vault shafts above to a quadripartite vault without ridges; vault painted to a scheme of 1844. A panelled c 1450 gallery in the south clerestory window six from the west; aisles vaulted as nave, with enriched stiff leaf corbels. The west end has a trefoil-headed blank arcade on blue Lias shafts and a central stilted depressed-arch doorway, beneath the three west windows; the aisles end with a lateral rib from the vault to the west arcade. Chapels beneath the towers have sexpartite vaults with an enriched hole for the bell ropes; the south-west chapel has a shallow arch to the cloister beneath three cusped arched panels. The parvise over the north chapel contains a rare drawing floor. Two chantry chapels set between the east nave piers have fine openwork Perpendicular tracery and cresting, the south chapel of St Edmund c 1490 has a fan-vaulted canopy over the altar and two statue niches with canopies, and an ogee-arched doorway, the North Holy Cross Chapel c 1420 has quatrefoil panelling to the east canopy, distressed statue niches, and four-centre arched doorways.

STAINED GLASS: Original early glass is mainly in the choir and Lady Chapel; the Parliamentarians caused extensive damage generally in August 1642 and May 1643. Earliest fragments are in two windows on the west side of the Chapter House staircase (c 1280-90), and in two windows in the south choir aisle (c 1310-20), but of principal interest is the Lady Chapel range, c 1325-30, the east window including extensive repairs by Willement, 1845, and the others with substantial complete canopy-work, otherwise much in fragments. The choir east window is a fine Jesse Tree, including much silver stain, flanked by two windows each side in the clerestory, with large figures of saints, all these of c 1340-45; a further window each side is late C19. The chapel of St Katherine has interesting panels of c 1520, attributed to Arnold of Nijmegen; these, in the south and east windows were acquired from the destroyed church of St John, Rouen, the last panel was bought in 1953. The large triple lancet to the nave west end was glazed at the expense of Dean Creyghton at a cost of £140 in c 1664: repaired in 1813, but the central light largely replaced to a design by A K Nicholson between 1925-31. The main north and south transept end windows are by Powell, 1903-05, and the nave south aisle has four paired lights of 1881-1904, with a similar window at the west end of each aisle.

Façade: metal cladding, horizontal running bond pattern, stainless steel, cold-rolled, bright annealed, colored, black.
Soffit of original 1977 Knox City car park structure. Columns have capitals and drop panels in the slab to resist shear at these locations (i.e. the columns 'punching through' the floor slab).
This method was commonly used in the 1970's and 1980's. Standard formwork squares were used in the waffle layout to simplify formwork in construction.
Superbly designer finished second floor, 120 square meters, 2 bedroom apartment in a quiet street in Hamrun a corner away from all amenities. Very well lit with gypsum soffits everywhere and plastered walls following a complete overhaul in 2008.

Long balcony on facade and nice wide terrace at back for clothes hanging. Gres ceramic and laminate parquet flooring.

These were snapped yesterday morning. We got 15 inches of snow between Sunday evening and Tues. afternoon. Then we had a day and a half of sunshine with temps below freezing. The result, rows of little icicles. The temp got up to 34 yesterday and by evening they were all gone! I liked the shadows on the wall.

This 1980’s kitchen was woefully inadequate for a budding gourmet cook and his family. The cooktop was in a tight alcove with a downdraft vent and virtually no adjacent counter. With only one wall cabinet in the entire kitchen, all of the dish and food storage was in a pantry located between the refrigerator and oven cabinet. There was no landing space for the pantry, refrigerator, oven or microwave.
Our clients’ primary goal was to cook on a commercial style range without a hood obstructing the view to the family room. It is important to be able to chat with family and friends while cooking. A downdraft vent would not be adequate with the very high BTU range, thus we installed a ceiling mounted exhaust fan which includes LED lighting. This is mounted in a soffit constructed to allow space for the ducting, shorten the distance from the range to the exhaust and complement the style of the kitchen. The bottom of the soffit was painted to match the cabinetry. A powerful remote blower was installed outside, making the vent very quiet in the kitchen.
The large island has ample storage for dishes and cookware. The back of the island offers additional storage for cookbooks and less frequently used items. Pendant lights were installed to illuminate the portion of the island not under the exhaust. There is recessed lighting in the balance of the kitchen and eating area.
Two tall cabinets (one with a micro-convection oven) replace the storage in the former pantry. The cabinets and counter in the area formerly occupied by the pantry allow more eye level storage and display space. The counter is also used for landing for the refrigerator and micro-convection. A shallow spice cabinet disguises a mechanical chase adjacent to the refrigerator. An under cabinet light fixture highlights the custom backsplash tile.
The window was replaced with an awning model to allow an unobstructed view to the yard. The new sink was centered under the window.
The existing hardwood floor was patched and refinished.

H.T. Klugel Architectural Sheet Metal Works was established in Emporia,, Virginia in 1914 at the junction of two rail lines—the Atlantic Coast Line and the Southern Railroad. This location was to figure in the expansion of his business. Klugel, a tinsmith, was from Danville, Illinois, learning the trade from his father. His shop produced a variety of goods for local needs such as cornices, gutters, drain pipes, stove flues, marquees, decorative details, and others. A customer, who might need prefabricated pressed metal ceilings, he would have them select from catalogs. They would arrive by rail, facilitating his installation of items for his customers. His business supplied contractors all over southeastern Virginia. The sheet metal façade of his own shop became an advertisement for his goods and skills, displaying a variety of metal ornaments such as swags, circles, geometric patterns and lions’ heads. The structure is a unique example of a decorative sheet metal façade for a store, and it was all produced in Emporia. Ads were painted on the brick sides of the building. The building is styled as Edwardian Classicism in the nomination form for the National Register of Historic Places. As an architectural viewing amateur, I’m not certain what this is, even after reading about it. The building was added to the Register April 2, 1973 with identification #73002208. The nomination form is available at the Virginia Department of Historic Resources
www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/Cities/Emporia/109-0005_Kl...
As a factory for tin goods, the building was intended to be utilitarian. Originally ell-shaped, a cinderblock addition has made the structure rectangular. The flat-roofed building with parapets on the sides is made of American bond brick, which is not visible viewing only the front façade. A color combination of silver and black is used throughout the façade ornamentation. At the top of the front façade is a pediment mounted on two short pedestals, each flanked by volutes. Inside the pediment is floral ornamentation. Beneath the pediment a panel shows what I call a sun-burst motif (the nomination form refers to this a part of a patera—( www.decorartsnow.com/2013/05/28/design-dictionary-patera-... ). Another pedestal is above the pediment and is topped by a finial in the shape of an onion dome. Below the pediment is an inscription within panels of various sizes—1902 H. T. Klugel 1914”. To each side of this inscription is a balustrade with two pedestals topped by small onion dome finials. The cornice just below has dentils and modillions or brackets. The horizontal second level with a geometric sheet metal design has three distinct areas: the middle with the inscription “Architectural Sheet Metal Work” on the patterned background and flanked with roundels that show keystone motifs; the right section shows a raised panel with the words “Skylights” and the left shows a raised panel with the writing “Cornices”. Below each of these latter two sections are swags of flowers and drapery. The first level contains two arched entrances both with soffit and with double doors; the central entrance is recessed. Just above the arch of the center door is a keystone. On either side of the main entrance are figures of lion’s heads with floral decoration; a pattern of circles is below each of the lion’s heads. The windows are arched as well and contain fan tracery.

Soffit of waffle slab used to build Myer Highpoint, which was completed in 1975. This floor slab system was used to build a number of Myer stores around the suburbs of Melbourne in the 1970's. Note the thickened drop panels around the columns, which are incorporated to prevent failure by the slab punching through at these locations. This is a four level building with this additional floor beneath for car parking.
Interestingly the lower level of the original section of the main shopping centre has an exposed floor slab which reveals a band beam structure; it appears only the Myer store used this system.
Saw the back of The Old Rep from Hinckley Street so too a few shots of it from there.
Tax's can wait down here.
The Stage Door is here at the back of the theatre.
According to Pevsner, The Old Rep Theatre is the best building on Station Street. It dates from 1912 - 13 by S N Cooke (the current theatre is on Broad Street in Centenary Square). Austere monumental-classic, fashionable for theatres cicra 1910. Giant Ionic pilasters, delicately detailed disappear into the tower-like end bays. Windows with heavy architraves and discs; Greek key and guilloche friezes. Semi-octagonal dormer like a lookout. Foyer and stairs have a heavy dado in brown and black marble contrasted with a delicate Doric entablature. Small auditorium with an extremely steep rake, because of the shallow site. Concave balcony with more Greek key on the soffit. Doric proscenium, austere and dramatic, with a huge frieze.
From Pevsner Architectural Guides: Birmingham by Andy Foster.
A shutter on the back of The Old Rep saying No Parking. That means taxis need to keep clear of this.

Soffit of Myer Dandenong car park, opened in 1974 along with the adjacent store. Both buildings are built using this flooring system, although the Myer store has square columns and a different drop panel arrangement around the tops of the columns compared to the capitals used here.
This was the first multi-level car park in Dandenong and has five levels. The middle level was once fenced off for staff parking and storage but is now open for general use.

H.T. Klugel Architectural Sheet Metal Works was established in Emporia,, Virginia in 1914 at the junction of two rail lines—the Atlantic Coast Line and the Southern Railroad. This location was to figure in the expansion of his business. Klugel, a tinsmith, was from Danville, Illinois, learning the trade from his father. His shop produced a variety of goods for local needs such as cornices, gutters, drain pipes, stove flues, marquees, decorative details, and others. A customer, who might need prefabricated pressed metal ceilings, he would have them select from catalogs. They would arrive by rail, facilitating his installation of items for his customers. His business supplied contractors all over southeastern Virginia. The sheet metal façade of his own shop became an advertisement for his goods and skills, displaying a variety of metal ornaments such as swags, circles, geometric patterns and lions’ heads. The structure is a unique example of a decorative sheet metal façade for a store, and it was all produced in Emporia. Ads were painted on the brick sides of the building. The building is styled as Edwardian Classicism in the nomination form for the National Register of Historic Places. As an architectural viewing amateur, I’m not certain what this is, even after reading about it. The building was added to the Register April 2, 1973 with identification #73002208. The nomination form is available at the Virginia Department of Historic Resources
www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/Cities/Emporia/109-0005_Kl...
As a factory for tin goods, the building was intended to be utilitarian. Originally ell-shaped, a cinderblock addition has made the structure rectangular. The flat-roofed building with parapets on the sides is made of American bond brick, which is not visible viewing only the front façade. A color combination of silver and black is used throughout the façade ornamentation. At the top of the front façade is a pediment mounted on two short pedestals, each flanked by volutes. Inside the pediment is floral ornamentation. Beneath the pediment a panel shows what I call a sun-burst motif (the nomination form refers to this a part of a patera—( www.decorartsnow.com/2013/05/28/design-dictionary-patera-... ). Another pedestal is above the pediment and is topped by a finial in the shape of an onion dome. Below the pediment is an inscription within panels of various sizes—1902 H. T. Klugel 1914”. To each side of this inscription is a balustrade with two pedestals topped by small onion dome finials. The cornice just below has dentils and modillions or brackets. The horizontal second level with a geometric sheet metal design has three distinct areas: the middle with the inscription “Architectural Sheet Metal Work” on the patterned background and flanked with roundels that show keystone motifs; the right section shows a raised panel with the words “Skylights” and the left shows a raised panel with the writing “Cornices”. Below each of these latter two sections are swags of flowers and drapery. The first level contains two arched entrances both with soffit and with double doors; the central entrance is recessed. Just above the arch of the center door is a keystone. On either side of the main entrance are figures of lion’s heads with floral decoration; a pattern of circles is below each of the lion’s heads. The windows are arched as well and contain fan tracery.

Unlike the older architectural styles, modern architecture doesn't fit into styles. Buildings designed today are typically wholly unique entities created by the architect who envisioned them, incorporating materials and features they prefer, whether a local vernacular or something exotic that strikes their fancy. Many features are universal, so in many cases, it can be very difficult to place a modern building just by looking at its design.
In one type of modern building design common in Canada, materials include wood and stone, which are in abundance, metal, and glass. The form of the building typically includes a sloped roof to prevent snow built up, high ceilings, and large south facing windows, and wood lattice structures, the most notable of which being the atrium of the Health Sciences Centre. Details are typically functional as opposed to ornamental. In this image the wood soffit extending over the north window is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. (As opposed to the typical aluminum soffits you would find on a house.) The metal wires holding up the awning above the entrance were placed in a way that worked with the lines on the building, as opposed to being in the way. The two metal columns supporting the overhang above the door extend to the roof and support the overhang above the modern frontispiece. The façade material is likely an "external insulation and finishing system", a synthetic material that insulates the building and can mimic the appearance of a wide variety of building materials, but I don't know exactly.
This building was designed by local firm Kuch Stephenson Gibson Malo Architects and Engineer. It incorporates a variety of green building solutions and was nominated for two 2008 Wood Works awards.
Saw the back of The Old Rep from Hinckley Street so too a few shots of it from there.
Tax's can wait down here.
The Stage Door is here at the back of the theatre.
According to Pevsner, The Old Rep Theatre is the best building on Station Street. It dates from 1912 - 13 by S N Cooke (the current theatre is on Broad Street in Centenary Square). Austere monumental-classic, fashionable for theatres cicra 1910. Giant Ionic pilasters, delicately detailed disappear into the tower-like end bays. Windows with heavy architraves and discs; Greek key and guilloche friezes. Semi-octagonal dormer like a lookout. Foyer and stairs have a heavy dado in brown and black marble contrasted with a delicate Doric entablature. Small auditorium with an extremely steep rake, because of the shallow site. Concave balcony with more Greek key on the soffit. Doric proscenium, austere and dramatic, with a huge frieze.
From Pevsner Architectural Guides: Birmingham by Andy Foster.
Soffit of the steel-framed car park structure at the Foster Street car park. Concrete is poured on the 'Bondek' metal decking above to form the floor.
The two-level section of Dandenong Plaza (excluding Kmart and Coles) opened in 1989 as the 'Capital Centre' and this section is all constructed using this floor system. It was extended and joined to Myer in 1995 and renamed Dandenong Plaza.
The 'Parking' sign above dates from the Capital Centre days.

Volubilis was a city of ancient Mauretania, with a Carthaginian presence since the 3rd c. BCE, later the western capital of Juba II and then a Roman municipium; its stone was later quarried for the construction of nearby Moulay Idriss and Meknes.
