Thanks to Philip McMullen for pointing me towards a surviving 'Sunflower' off-the-peg swimming pool with its retractable roof designed by Bernard Schoeler (1929-2020) It looks to be in superb condition.
Promise of Dry Land.

Good morning, Philip Philip McMullen & thank you, very belatedly on my part, I'm afraid. Here's another one that often engenders a lot of memories for people here. This is 'The Scullery' by Walter Steggles from 1927. It also featured in our show Beecroft Art Gallery from 2021-2022. #ELG
Useful background courtesy Philip McMullen with regard to the commissioning of the design for the 'Sunflower' off-the-peg swimming pool. This is what architecture is all about - it's not just for creating monumental real estate.
150 days and 150 days.
I’ve been in the US visiting family. This is a drawing completed over there.For what it’s worth I feel pleased with it.

More good photos of the Bernard Schoeller designed 'Tournesol (Sunflower)' off-the-peg swimming pools from the 1970s Philip McMullen
Philip McMullen Thanks Philip, it certainly is. When I read some of these monastic quotes, I do wonder who their intended audience was.
Philip McMullen Great story. Better than my 'trapped inside a stage door with Adam Faith' one.
