17 Dec 1976: I prefer to see #BasilSpence's entire life's work (Knightsbridge Barracks, Coventry Cathedral, the British Embassy in Rome) as a single Prayer, imploring Almighty God to send a nuclear holocaust which will knock it all down again.
Huge thanks to @SandriCollins & @UCDLibrary colleagues for hosting @LivUniLibrary today & showing us the wonderful spaces of the James Joyce library #basilspence. Thoughtful spaces to inspire and engage, with exciting plans to come!
These plans harmonize seamlessly with our renowned architectural design, envisioned by the distinguished Sir Basil Spence. Visit our campus development pages or the Student Hub to learn more: https://t.co/0We3s0u6ea

A joy to cover at St Catherine of Siena this morning as they are on pilgrimage to @ShrineOLW. @DioceseofSheff #basilspence
10 years ago today I was lucky enough to work in the Carmel College Julius Gottlieb Memorial, the bizarre modernist masterpiece designed by Basil Spence.
It was bloody marvellous.
Also seen in Andor when Andor gets sent to prison. #andor #basilspence #modernism
I have drawn this man a grand total of once (sorry!!) but happy Spence day! He seemed so cheery, I love that β¨

Incredible.
@poppymoppet I should have tagged you in to the previous tweets.
Piper came up in a conversation about #PaulineBoty I recall.
Couldnβt get into the auditorium, but the outside & the adjacent buildings were bloody great. 1960s masterplan by Spence, Bonnington & Collins as well as designing 15 buildings on campus between 1959-73. Nuffield #Theatre, University of Southampton. #basilspence @londonmodern23

@NE_Arch_Hist Fortunately one of the buildings - which may have served to inspire #BasilSpenceβs design - still exists.
βοΈππ¨The Art & Design dept loves our school building...even more so with a sky like the one we had tonight. This link has great photos (and drawings/plans) from the building's early days, for anyone who's interested #BasilSpence #ModernistArchitecture https://t.co/RVd6Lf1W3D
Some nice moments of discovery today in #NewtonMearns Town Centre... not a bad day for a #sitevisit either! π

#EdinburghbeyondtheGeorgian This 1930s garage by #BasilSpence would have looked startling when built sitting as it does between a late 18th & an early 19 th c tenement on Causewayside. #modernistarchitecture. #urbanwalking #buildings ##Scottishstchitecture
