Kings Place

Saturday, September 11, 2010

A cappella group "In The Smoke"
singing beautifully
up there
at Kings Place
.
Beautiful spacious building
designed by Peter Millican
- the house is not only for culture but also
hosting some offices
it's the home for
London Sinfonietta
& Guardian newspaper
.
( Sorry, the quality of pics is not so good... )
Endymion playing
Mozart Clarinet Quintet in A
&
Brahms Clarinet Quintet in B minor- pleasant start for Saturday !
.
Glass Façade
One of the most distinctive design features of the building
is the three-layered undulating glass façade
covering the west-facing York Way frontage.
This is a free-standing transparent surface
made up of hundreds of very slightly curved sheets of glass,
produced in a factory near Venice.
As well as being a beautiful design statement,
it has practical benefits;
from allowing Kings Place to be seen
and recognised by visitors from as far as
Kings Cross station to reducing heat gain
from the afternoon sun.
.
Lunch at Kings Place
Salmon quishe with salad,
cup of tea
and a scone-like cookie
- good!
