The Functional Tradition • JM Richards • The Architectural Press • 1958

Here is the cover for a lovely book of photographs of warehouses, docks, mills, maltings and sheds. The photographs are by Eric de Maré and John Piper, with a text by JM Richards and designed by Gordon Cullen.

The book provides for a visual record of the more interesting industrial buildings of the early industrial period in Britain. Quite a few of the structures shown are associated with the naval dockyards, railways and manufacturing. Some of these buildings will have disappeared and some will have been repurposed, especially in their water-side forms.

The book also provides for a landmark re-appraisal of this work-a-day architectural heritage and its reference in contemporary design...most clearly seen in the work of Michael and Patty Hopkins from the 1980s and onwards.

One of the most dramatic features of some of these buildings are the over-sized external tie-irons that bolt the structure together. They provide for a very distinctive pattern of repetition across the face of the building and as a counterpoint to the openings of doors and windows. The sculptural form of the large metal elements was re-visited, with more refinement, in the design of the Pompidou Centre in Paris.

I've posted before about Michael and Patty Hopkins, just type hopkins into the search...

and I've made a short podcast about Gordon Cullen, here

The cover shows one of the distinctive timber built covered boat-yards built for the naval docks. There is a surviving example of one of these structures at Chatham Historic Dockyard in Kent. Actually, there is quite a lot of this kind of architecture in Kent once you start to look carefully...oasts, mills, docks and forts etc. Kent also has some very lovely railway signal boxes. The one at Canterbury West, above the lines is especially good. We have a small, but perfectly formed, and restored, signal box at Folkestone Harbour.

I'm delighted to have found a copy of this book. I'll pop it on the Cullen and Architectural Press shelf.

Here is a picture of the print used on the wrapper of the book. It's from a scrap-book in the British Museum of popular prints from the 18C and early 19C. This illustration is taken from one of my Britain in Pictures books. I found it by accident this morning.

Marketing campaigns for properties come in a range of shapes and sizes and not every property should receive the same treatment.

AFL Grand Final 2020 The AFL have already put logistical plans in situ to host this year’s decider in Queensland,” he told Channel 7. The AFL Grand Final 2020 Live Online player mass migration is proceeding at the Winged snakes with affirmation on Thursday that veteran forward James Graham is anguishing a few shrewd move to the Super Affiliation.

It was Greenwood's first game against the Crows since he was exchanged to the Suns toward the highest of a year sooner – an exchange, Ricciuto insisted, happened considering the very truth that Adelaide couldn't bear the estimation of another conceded on-genius.

17 Mar 2021 Radisson Hotel Roof top extension and changes to front of hotel, Glasgow, Scotland

Info from architect Alan Dunlop:

I discovered that almost all of the original concept and context analysis (Design and Access Statement) supporting the planning application for a roof extension to the Radisson Blu is taken directly from my own writing, without my acknowledgement or approval. Their document includes street views, block plans and multiple 3D views but concludes with the most elementary, least imaginative and crudest, commercially driven proposal.

the roof top extension is certainly overpowering:

Therefore, as the architect of the Radisson, I spent a few hours planning how you might extend the hotel in a way which is conducive to the ideas and context fundamental to its original design. Then made a few rough sketches.

The Watch House project is the renovation of a 250 year old listed structure in Crail, on the East Neuk of Fife and a landmark on the Fife Coastal Path. It’s a spectacular site and the building looks onto the North Sea and over to the Isle of May National Nature Reserve. On a clear day, and there are many, you can see down to North Berwick.

The project received planning permission and listed building consent at the turn of this year the drawings are the original planning drawings. I was in the process of forming a design team for the next stages, preparing a building warrant and construction detail and tender drawings when the lockdown started. As a double whammy, my client is a New York based financier, in April New York became the epicentre for COVID in the US and she has been grounded there since. We hope to start again, fingers crossed, in 2021 and complete in 2022

18 Mar 2020 Celtic Crossing as Sea Tunnel, Scotland / Northern Ireland, UK

From Alan Dunlop:

“An underground tunnel connects to the A77 and A75, and breaks the coastal edge at Lairds Bay and Port Mora. The structure that supports the tunnel entrance to the sea looks like it might have risen from the rocks, fragments and mass of loose stones at the base of the sea cliffs that run all along the Galloway coastline.

I believe it would be possible for a structure, tunnel or bridge to be designed to harness wave energy from the Irish Sea on a massive scale. So, in the drawing, pontoons support the tunnel below and are connected to the sea bed by cable stays. Each is set out to allow ships to pass through. Similar pontoon and tunnel structures are currently being developed and constructed as part of the Norwegian Coastal Highway, crossing fjords 500 metres deep but here the pontoons are designed also to generate tidal energy.

It is a sea tunnel not a bridge, stretching across the Irish Sea. The tunnel sits 12 metres below the wave line and is supported by and connected to the pontoons, not burrowed below the sea bed.”

Adelia had expected her words to provoke Sebastian and in so doing, assumedshe would be forced to defend herself in some way. However, what seemed to betranspiring between them ultimately held little resemblance to what she hadexpected to incite. After his little taunt, delivered with an amused politenesswhich rendered its caustic nature benign, he had called her to him, commandingly,but gently, and she, despite her wholly justified reservations, had obeyed, allowingthe firm grasp of her wrist, unsurprised when he had used it to draw her closer,as if for appraisal.  

His touch, whilst not explicitly beckoned, is not rejected either andinstead she allows him the liberty, all the while transfixed, not by the soft sensationitself, but rather by Sebastian. How easily he confounds her, infuriatingly defyinginterpretation at every turn, to the point of transforming her into an avid voyeur,desperate to understand even the faintest hitch of his breath and the possibleramifications.

She does not entirely trust the soft affection in his tone, nor will sheallow his brief display of self-deprecation to the create the acutely alluring,albeit self-inflicted illusion that she can remedy him; that somehow, shecan make him feel human. His comment about marriage brings only a wry smile toher face; she has known for a long time that it is unlikely she will ever bepermitted to marry for love. Indeed, she can only rely on what little pityFriedrich is likely to have left for her upon her return, in that particular regard.The quality of the match will likely be a direct representation of his level ofesteem for her, however much trouble Herr Zeitzler may find himself in.

“Barely human…” She repeats thewords quietly, her gaze finally falling down to his hands; hands which touchher with a reverence that once felt owed and now feels only misplaced. For amoment she is reminded of the way he pressed against her with fury in Canterbury,and how she had smoothed his hair back into place like a doting Mother, to calmhim. It is now that her fingers reach to gently entwine in his hair once more,though there is nothing remotely motherly about this touch, that is distinctlymore intimate and exploratory, as if satisfying some desperate indulgence, long since repressed.

“How can you touch something you hate, so delicately?” She asks, the question not simply rhetorical but also aimed equally atherself, as her fingertips linger lightly at the back of his head. Tending tenderlyto the little hairs at the back of his neck, she finds herself moving evercloser, some unconscious part of her eager to feel his hands press at her hips,not in appreciation, but in opposition, to seize her and force her back as if sheis something dangerous, when in truth she is starkly aware she presents littlethreat to him. This deceivingly handsome man is one she has heard savagely gut a Turk,watched instructively strangle an Heir and seen shoot a man in the head atpoint blank range; each act performed dispassionately and with undeniable precision. It is a confusing dichotomy; to entertain these dual desires; the desireto escape Sebastian’s potentially hazardous hold, now sitting entirely at oddswith the desire to sink right into it; as if the two things could potentiallybe accomplished at once. 

“Ein reicher alterMann, ein Bankier, ein Schweinezüchter…will youwatch me wed? She whispers, her gaze briefly aiming to meet his own, without any signof challenge. “…watch me marry a man undeserving of me, a terrible man, whomI do not love? Will it bring you pleasure I wonder, Sebastian? Does anything,in fact?”

This part was easy. Falling into her orbit like giving in to gravity. The warmth of her palms in his hair, the slight scratch of fingernails against his skin. The systolic shudders of her body close to him, felt all through him as if they were his own.  He didn’t have to act. He even felt a brief somatic shiver of his own as her fingers found the downy hair at the nape of his neck. It was all he could do not to close his eyes. He let his forehead fall forward to rest against her silk-covered abdomen, and let a stuttered breath rush against the fabric above her navel. This, perhaps, was the natural limit. Any more and it would be either suspicious or dangerous. ‘How can you?’ he replied simply, factually.

A wicked little idea entered his head, and he opened his mouth against her skin, mouthing it firmly and biting both the silk and the tiniest catch of skin beneath it between his teeth as he did so. His grip on her flanks had tightened at the same time. He drew away from her and released an exaggerated breath as if in regret, or perhaps distress. He swore under his breath in English. And affected the discard of his self-control. That quiet moment in the interim was the last of the naivety he permitted Adelia. In a movement as swift as she must by now have come to expect from him, his hand shot up to the top of her thigh, gripping fast the flesh just under the curve of her buttocks, whilst the other hand had slid its way up her ribcage to support her upper half as he twisted her around and shifted her up onto the covers of her ridiculous bed.

Now poised over her with one knee digging into the mattress and the other at a polite distance between her legs, he looked down at her with eyes glassed as if deep in thought. ‘You’d better hope he’s terrifying,’ he murmured almost spitefully, the words seemingly disconnected entirely from whatever observations his mind was potently engaged in as his gaze flickered from her eyes to the shadow of her eyelashes underneath them, the colour in her cheek, the line of her jaw. ‘Or he won’t be able to protect you from me.’ He continued his appraisal of her for a moment longer, not to be rushed as his light grip on her left wrist told. But at just the right moment her sweet mouth disclosed its resemblance to her brother’s, and Sebastian’s reverence for her dissolved at once, and he leaned down and captured her lips in a precise, well-executed kiss.

[xgenesisrei]

Andreas Kostenberger & Michael Kruger's recent work on Christian origins actually had me asking why they focused so much on W. Bauer's original thesis and B. Ehrman's later reformulation, as if debunking the origin and its most recent popularization is enough to actually overturn the myriad of scholarly work that developed in between.

More so, the binary framing which K & K took (orthodoxy vs heresy) falls into a false dichotomy having ignored discussions about another equally important variable -'#heterodoxy' (which they didn't address nor discuss in their book). I think, this unnecessary polarization had them ignore the line of work taken by scholars such as Dr. Andrew Walls and former archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williàms, regarding the viability of diverse expressions of Christian beliefs centering on the risen Christ. Williams put it well when he observed that diversity was equated to heresy only when the capacity to persecute and outlaw dissenting perspectives were put firmly in place (see his magnum opus, 'Arius: Tradition and Heresy,' SPCK: 2001).

I think, K & K have pressed their case (and cause) a bit too much so that they can push for their preoccupation with 'singular' orthodoxy in the early church which led them to downplay the glaring diversity in the early church. It seems to me that their arguments are shaped more by their fear of plurality, indifference to fluidity, disdain for #postmodernism, in general, rather than an earnest appraisal of NT scholarship.

I'd rather take the conclusion made by NT scholar James DG Dunn when he said, "We dishonor the unique centrality of Christ when we demand a larger unity and refuse to acknowledge the diversity through which the commitment to Christ can be expressed."

For Dunn, the #unity that exists in the early church is better understood this way, "a unity that consists and is possible only because the members of body are all different and have different functions; that is, a unity that is NOT a unity of sameness, not a unity threatened by differences, but a unity that can only function as such by reason of such differences; a unity that involves recognition of and living out a mutual interdependence by each on the other; a unity that can only thrive by integrated and co-ordinated #diversity" (Unity and Diversity in the NT, 3rd Ed.).

In other words, if you want to establish the unity of the early church, it cannot come by disparaging the significant diversity that exists among the different Christian communities of the 1st-2nd century (as K & K did in their book). Instead you do it by upholding it and celebrating the texture such a diversity adds to understanding the person of Jesus.

10 tips for growing saffron

Saffron (Crocus sativus) has constantly captivated me, being both delightful and costly, two powerful characteristics. The blooms are intense and wonderful. They fly out of the ground in fall like enchantment, lilac or mauve with darker shading veins. Yet, the genuine centerpiece is the three blazing red marks of shame which convey the 'fragrance of ambrosia'. Kashmiri Kesar brand and blossoms were the image and explanation of riches and the world's costliest zest. They were applauded by artists, the petals stuffed into the pads of the high and grandiose, and saffron water was utilized to aroma dinner corridors. The yellow color was considered the 'flawlessness of excellence' and saffron-yellow shoes were just worn by Persian rulers, divine beings and goddesses, fairies and vestals. Kashmiri Saffron tea was a warming beverage utilized as a stomach related, however customarily saffron is likewise utilized in cakes and buns, paella and rice dishes, in fish soups and stews, for example, the French bouillabaisse, a rich fish dish from Marseilles. Today it will in general component regularly in colorful dishes in up-advertise cafés. Why the publicity? Maybe, similar to me, you have had saffron in a dish and not been dazzled. To be straightforward I couldn't taste anything much at all and put it in a comparative class to whitebait – over-appraised for the cost (sorry to learn you white baiters!). Presently, because of a little home experimentation, I have altered my perspective and I trust you do as well. To the cook's embarrassment, up to this point, we have never delivered any in our nursery. In any case, presently, on account of a liberal peruser (thank you Ian!) and an obliging, great depleted soil, we planted our absolute first saffron corms a year ago. There was extraordinary energy when Ken got an initial couple of blossoms from our own plot and organized them cautiously on paper towels to dry. A couple of petals were a little creepy crawly bitten however who's grumbling? Be that as it may, when I requested that he explore different avenues regarding them he said he needed something more yet and they were very valuable to squander on me! Luckily the cook didn't get the keep going state on that issue. The principal dish that Ken thought of was a heavenly saffron rice serving of mixed greens and it was far superior following a night in the ice chest. In the wake of eating a bowl I felt amazingly eager and ate seconds evidently, saffron is a craving stimulant and helps to process too. Like the Moroccan charge we investigated in the last two issues, the flavor is difficult to put a finger on, portrayed by some as looking like nectar, however, different portrayals incorporate feed like and metallic hints with somewhat severe notes. Since it is a water solvent, an exceptionally little amount in cooking will give an exquisite brilliant yellow, which carries us to Ken's subsequent examination, a dazzling yellow saffron orange cake. This subsequent investigation uses ground almonds rather than flour and is by a wide margin the best sans gluten preparing I have ever tasted, with its additional advantage being beneficial for you. 10 TIPS FOR GROWING SAFFRON 1. Fortunately for us here in Canterbury, we have what saffron likes: winter chill and warm, dry summers. Sorry to learn of you in Auckland and Northland, however, you may be in a tough situation. Research by Crop and Food during the 1990s discovered this Mediterranean local developed well in regions south of the Waikato in the North Island and on the east of the South Island (where we are). Great ices down to - 10°C and periodic snow were no issue for it. 2. Saffron price in India leans towards light, friable soils with a sandy or loamy surface and a high supplement substance, yet the most significant criteria are that the dirt is well-depleted. Corms are frequently developed in raised beds to improve seepage. 3. Saffron is sterile and doesn't set reasonable seed so yields must be developed by corm augmentation. 4. Plants corms in late January or early February for reap in April and May. Spot 10cm separated and 10-15cm profound, ideally in raised beds for expanded seepage. 5. Planting profundities and separations differ economically however more little girl corms are created in shallower plantings. Furnish a free depleting soil with a lot of natural issues. You can side dress them with manure as well however don't try too hard. 6. Contingent upon the size of the mother corm, every corm will be supplanted by 1-10 new cormlets. Every unique corm above 30g will deliver a normal of six new corms in its subsequent year. This expansion in weight every year and develop over the old ones, crawling towards the dirt surface by 1-2 cm every year. Inevitably corms become packed bringing about diminished yields so cultivators normally lift them intermittently, about like clockwork in business plots in Spain. 7. Beds ought to be kept sans weed – on the off chance that you are a lethargic weeder like us, a layer of sawdust assists with weed control. 8. Saffron blooms in its first season, around 40 days in the wake of planting, and proceeds for 30-40 days relying upon climate. The mauve blossoms regularly show up before the leaves, yet may come simultaneously or after. Each plant may blossom for as long as 15 days yet once-blooming beginnings you have to watch out for them, picking blossoms toward the beginning of the prior day they wither. 9. Downpour (or water system) 10-15 days before blossoming brings about high creation; the dry season will cause little blooms and marks of shame. 10. Collect blooms by squeezing off at the base with the fingernail, or with a slight winding development. They are best collected in the first part of the day after the dew has dissipated. In Italy, blossoms are reaped promptly toward the beginning of the day while still shut and the marks of shame are simpler to disengage. It is conceivable – however dubious – to gather the disgrace without picking the blossom. Step by step instructions to HARVEST AND DRY SAFFRON ● Flowers ought to be dried as quickly as time permits subsequent to picking. On the off chance that you can't dry them straight away keep them in shut holders in the cooler. The point is to accomplish about 10% dampness. Drying time will differ with the mugginess, amount of strings, dehydrator model (in case you're utilizing one). With a little household dehydrator, around three hours at 48°C ought to be about right. ● The brightness of shading is helped by snappy, high-temperature drying. With consideration, you can utilize a broiler, as we did. Tests demonstrate that disgrace can be evaporated at 110°C as long as the planning is ideal (at 110°C, only two minutes is required). ● Well-dried saffron ought to be a shiny, dim red shading. On the off chance that you chomp on the string, it ought to have a waxy vibe. Over-drying makes strings weak with a severe persistent flavor. Not dry enough and they will be inclined to spoil. ● Dried marks of disgrace ought to be put away quickly in a water/air proof compartment in obscurity to abstain from dying. IS YOUR SAFFRON GOOD OR BAD? ● Saffron quality relies upon its shading power (crocin content), scent (safranal), and taste (picrocrocin). ● Crocin is the significant shade, a water dissolvable carotenoid that gives saffron its incentive as a yellow-red color. ● Picrocrocin, an unpleasant tasting standard, hydrolyzes on drying to glucose and safranal. The best quality saffron has a high safranal content. ● Good saffron is a crisp, splendid orange shading and scents unequivocally sweet and sharp. It tends to be substituted with comparative shaded herbs, for example, safflower, turmeric, and marigold however it totally changes the flavor. At the point when old it ends up dry and smelly so don't spare it up for a really long time! For what reason IS SAFFRON SO EXPENSIVE? ● Weight for weight, saffron is more significant than gold, making it effectively the world's most costly zest. In a Minoan culture (1900-1600BC) similar loads to gauge gold were utilized to quantify saffron. ● Once you start picking and trying different things with saffron you rapidly observe why it is so expensive. Our first year's collect from two plots yielded not exactly a dessertspoon of marks of shame. ● Each dried shame weighs between 0.3-1g. To make up a kilogram of dried saffron requires the penance of somewhere in the range of 70,000 and 200,000 blooms, contingent upon their quality. Put it another way, a kilogram of blossoms may yield only 12g of marks of shame. ● Yields shift enormously in various developing conditions running from 2-2.5kg per hectare (Morocco) to 29kg per ha in Spain underwater system. Research in NZ (in Clyde) demonstrated yields of 24kg/ha. Step by step instructions to utilize it ● Less is more to an extreme and the harsh taste overwhelms the unobtrusive flavor. ● Just a spot of saffron will shading and flavor 500g of rice. ● Generally, the dried strings are implanted first by adding to warm water, milk or cooking alcohol. They can likewise be disintegrated dry into nourishment.

Radisson Hotel Roof top extension and changes to front of hotel, Glasgow, Scotland

Info from architect Alan Dunlop:

I discovered that almost all of the original concept and context analysis (Design and Access Statement) supporting the planning application for a roof extension to the Radisson Blu is taken directly from my own writing, without my acknowledgement or approval. Their document includes street views, block plans and multiple 3D views but concludes with the most elementary, least imaginative and crudest, commercially driven proposal.

the roof top extension is certainly overpowering:

Therefore, as the architect of the Radisson, I spent a few hours planning how you might extend the hotel in a way which is conducive to the ideas and context fundamental to its original design. Then made a few rough sketches.

The Watch House project is the renovation of a 250 year old listed structure in Crail, on the East Neuk of Fife and a landmark on the Fife Coastal Path. It’s a spectacular site and the building looks onto the North Sea and over to the Isle of May National Nature Reserve. On a clear day, and there are many, you can see down to North Berwick.

The project received planning permission and listed building consent at the turn of this year the drawings are the original planning drawings. I was in the process of forming a design team for the next stages, preparing a building warrant and construction detail and tender drawings when the lockdown started. As a double whammy, my client is a New York based financier, in April New York became the epicentre for COVID in the US and she has been grounded there since. We hope to start again, fingers crossed, in 2021 and complete in 2022

Approach to the tunnel at the shore level: all drawings courtesy of Alan Dunlop Architect

Kids fishing for crabs and starfish in the undercroft:

18 Mar 2020 Celtic Crossing as Sea Tunnel, Scotland / Northern Ireland, UK

From Alan Dunlop:

“An underground tunnel connects to the A77 and A75, and breaks the coastal edge at Lairds Bay and Port Mora. The structure that supports the tunnel entrance to the sea looks like it might have risen from the rocks, fragments and mass of loose stones at the base of the sea cliffs that run all along the Galloway coastline.

I believe it would be possible for a structure, tunnel or bridge to be designed to harness wave energy from the Irish Sea on a massive scale. So, in the drawing, pontoons support the tunnel below and are connected to the sea bed by cable stays. Each is set out to allow ships to pass through. Similar pontoon and tunnel structures are currently being developed and constructed as part of the Norwegian Coastal Highway, crossing fjords 500 metres deep but here the pontoons are designed also to generate tidal energy.

It is a sea tunnel not a bridge, stretching across the Irish Sea. The tunnel sits 12 metres below the wave line and is supported by and connected to the pontoons, not burrowed below the sea bed.”

Disband the canon. Appraise the things you were told have significance. Read for yourself.

Poetry does not begin with the Canterbury Tales, not with the Odyssey, not even with Genesis. It begins, says Robert Graves in The White Goddess, with the Song of Amergin, an ancient Celtic calendar-alphabet.

I am the womb: of every holt,

I am the blaze: on every hill,

I am the queen: of every hive,

I am…
