Thanks to friends real and virtual, I seem to have developed a very amateur interest and taste in buildings and architecture. As I've not been able to find a thread elsewhere on CC, I thought it might be nice to share thoughts about buildings we like and dislike, and try to explain why. Photos will be helpful!
Offices, shops, hospitals, blocks of flats, houses, churches... anything goes.
Here's my first one... a nice row of shops in Magdalen Road, Exeter. Nice mixture of brick types, a mixture of individual and co-ordinated designs, held together with sticky-outy windows (see, I know all the technical terms). Very pleasing.
In due course I'll be making sure to take pictures of buildings I dislike too (and hope that they haven't been designed by someone I know...)
