The Nottingham Gallery in UK, designed by Caruso St John characterizes the 19th century grey and somber warehouses and offices of the famous Lace Market located next door. Its one of the first buildings that I added to my bucket list back in the days when I started reading about contemporary architecture.
The green and gold exteriors stand out against the skyline, especially more so, when the sun’s rays touch the gold and seem to set it on fire.
Another striking feature is the lace-like concrete facade, made of green precast concrete panels, cast with a lace pattern on the surface.
Amazingly it looks realistic: soft and delicate looking like real lace stitched onto the surface.
