I'm not sure why they're saying that on the tour when their own website describes it as "an icon of brutalist architecture". An architectural movement is defined by more than just one material. RIBA's brutalist style guide has the Barbican and other buildings with picked concrete in its examples. It might not use béton brut but it's still widely considered to be brutalist.

I believe they meant it wasn't yet there in the 80s, when OP was asking about

Sustainability is important, but it cannot be at the expense of economic downturn

"It's ok if the planet's burning as long as number goes up"

If airports in other countries don't have the capacity and also decide not to expand, leading more people to take trains, then that's a success

This seems to have worked! Thank you so much

I've been having this with my 9 Pro, did you manage to get anywhere with this?

the kitchens were actually designed by a yacht design firm to make the best use of the space!

I've also lived there for a couple of years and it was fine all year round

Yeah, plus the concrete stays cool

The Barbican balconies (in the terrace blocks at least) are all connected as fire escapes, so you can't obstruct them

Pretty sure it's ChatGPT too, so much it's not X, it's Y and nonsense like "So here is the offer, with no gloves on."

He's almost as bad as Thiel, see the fascist manifesto he posted on twitter the other day

Owlskip Games have a bunch with similar mechanics

Could try the MacSmiths by Cambridge Heath

Yep, I bought mine direct and had no issues with customs etc.

She released Galore in 2020, but that's apparently a mixtape? Not that I'm sure what the difference is these days

rem_euclid to the rescue

3rd April!

I was one row from the back and it was fine, a little hard to distinguish the band members but a great view of the screens and overall staging
