Atom

Panopticon at Wycoller, Wycoller Country Park, Lancashire. A viewing point and shelter. Panopticon: "a structure, space or device providing a comprehensive or panoramic view"

 

RIBA award winner 2003, by Peter Meacock. Ferro-cement with a coating of metal-based bronze paint.

 

Sadly, there was originally a polished steel sphere within Atom that reflected the entering light, but this was stolen in 2012, leaving just a stump.
