Not only may the project itself be interesting but the solution may well surpass the sort of attention that the program may suggest. With that in mind a special tip o' the hat goes to Plastik Architects for being shortlisted as one of eight projects in RIBA's Regional Awards. The project? A public toilet (or loo if you want to use the local vernacular) located in Parrock Street Car Park. There is something tremendously special about paying that sort of attention to such a small project and making such a wonderfully large statement. A firm that can exemplify large intentions with such a small medium deserves recognition. BBC via Archinect Labels: Design Rants # posted by Dru McKeown @ 12:27 PM Comments: Post a Comment << Home
