Good to see this update re #prestonbusstation to the display at ⁦@AvoncroftMuseum⁩ Bromsgrove

Did I say we saw tiles??

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

Love this in the modernist apartments!

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

And of course we’ve seen more times this morning!

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

In Faro with Richard Walker leading @c20society trip on the roof of @themodernist hotel with owner Chris organiser of Faro Modernist weekend— running for 3rd time this year

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

In Faro (Portuguese Algarve) prepping for C20 tour led by artist Richard Walker— starts tonight!

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

Great to be at Palace of Westminster with @c20society this week. Helping to launch vital report by Purcell on Listed Buildings with RAAC & making case for VAT cut on building repair! More RAAC discussion at my Conservation of Historic Concrete course @westdeancollege in July

[WowHaus @WowHauser]

In case you missed this one earlier today…

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

Really important for us to get out and see buildings AND meet the people who use and care for them— well done Coco— you pack a lot in!

[Coco Whittaker @coco_whittaker]

My work at @C20Society has taken me to some particularly special places recently

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

Inspiring day with @hughpearman interviewing potential new @C20Society trustees, had perfect lunchtime break— walked to see Ibrahim Mahama
wrapping of @BarbicanCentre billowing in a warm breeze

Love that @MailOnline is featuring Thaddeus Zupanic’s fab book— big interview with him in next C20 magazine and talk in October https://t.co/KBLz86y5Rt

Here’s the Embassy Court view before the storm blew in,…

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

At Embassy Court Brighton by #Wellscoates. Amazing views out those corner windows, but taking a pounding from salt spray—tough location for a II* concrete building experimental in its day!

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

At @Tate Britain for launch of Keith Piper’s video response to Whistler’s restaurant mural— slightly underwhelming, installation needs gap between showings with Whistler illuminated— point is that this it is a significant artwork which is why the racist content needs addressing

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

Dank and soggy but beautiful walk in Kent yesterday—enjoyed this bench by ⁦⁦@CharlesHollArch⁩ at Waldershare Park— a bit slimy to sit down….

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

Why is the bottom half of the E&Cs Faraday Memorial looking all matte?

[C20 Society @C20Society]

📻Tune in to @BBCFrontRow this evening from 19:15 to hear C20 Director @catherinecroft discuss contemporary attitudes to brutalism, and the proposed new Museum of Brutalist Architecture.

My tube platform— who knew!

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

At Henry Moore Institute Leeds to interview Dorian Crone, son of artist Egon Altdorf about his father’s work tonight— amazing woodcuts as well as welded iron sculptures

[Catherine Croft @CatherineCroft]

My review of @royalacademy Herzog de Meuron exhibition in October issue of @BurlingtonMag https://t.co/aD3vCL6M8m — my conclusion? meaty, inspiring content, but not very accessible. Should architects be curating their own work?
