Having enjoyed Natalie’s tweet about the vision behind Irvine New Town, it’s a pleasure to read Rowan Moore’s article on architect Richard Gibson’s similarly optimistic work in Shetland - modern but with a strong sense of place 👇👀🤔👍! theguardian.com/artanddesign/a…

Hola @vitastudent 👋😀! Just saying but did you know that #Glasgow has a tradition of saving great entrances to old buildings? They’re dotted all over the city in places like: the Gallowgate; Rottenrow; and Bellahouston Park. Why not do the same thing with the #ABC Cinema 🤔?!

Girvan is a great wee town on the Firth of Clyde. But as with many small Scottish towns they need traditional skills to help fix the historic buildings in the heart of town. Therefore, if you know about traditional skills within the area please fill in this survey 👀👇😉👍!

#MomentsOfBeauty in #Glasgow: This very American warehouse on Wilson Street, by James Taylor Thomson, is the real deal for he worked in #NewYork for Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue who was one of the US’s finest architects. The unusual doorcase is heavily influenced by his work 👇👀🥰!

#MomentsOfBeauty in #Glasgow: James Boucher’s double fronted commercial building of 1875 addresses Nelson Mandela Place & West Nile Street with near identical facades. There’s a lovely air of Victorian fantasy about it with winged cats and Boucher’s love of botanical ornament 🥰!

Walked past the former #ABC #Glasgow Cinema at lunchtime and yes, the demolition squad are on site. Alas, it is hard not to interpret the symbolism of a mini digger in the most photogenic spot in front of the entrance as a two-fingered salute to those arguing for retention 🤨🥺!

#MomentsOfBeauty in #Glasgow: Architects Clarke & Bell did a good line of beautifully sculpted and rather classy doorcases to their mid 1880s to 90s commercial buildings dotted around Glasgow’s Central Station including Bennet’s Warehouse, the Weekly Mail & Fyfe Chambers 👀👇🥰!

#MomentsOfBeauty in #Glasgow: #NewYork trained James Taylor Thomson designed this interwar warehouse for William Todd & Sons Ltd with cast iron panels by the Lion Foundry. On the corner of Candleriggs and Wilson Street it nicely concludes Glasgow’s mini Avenue of the Americas 🥰!
