Merry-no-go-round
I just really liked this picture of the merry-go-round at the Albert Dock on a “closed” day.

Haworth Tompkins / built works.
Haworth Tompkins Architects are responsible for the new Shed temporary theatre space on the South Bank in London, which looks a little like a giant upturned table. This Dovecote Studio for Snape Maltings is one of my favourites of their previous projects.
A large north light roof window provides even light for artists, while a small mezzanine platform with a writing desk incorporates a fully opening glazed corner window that gives long views over the marshes towards the sea. The single volume will be used by artists in residence, by musicians as rehearsal or performance space, by staff for meetings or as a temporary exhibition space.

Click on the link above for a really interesting account of how the piece, commissioned for the Blinc Festival in Conwy, was developed. Links between Alan Turing and Alan Garner provided some of the inspiration. I have an old paperback of The Owl Service which has similar kaleidoscopic illustrations.
