St Hilda’s College featured in RIBA J and AJ
A few copies of RIBA Journal and Architects’ Journal have just landed on our desk - they include great features on St Hilda’s Oxford. We are delighted to see that the College tower, photographed by Peter Cook, made it to the cover of the RIBA J’s December issue.
‘Gort Scott’s proposal was chosen for the ‘intuitive and natural’ way in which buildings are integrated into the organic complex. And that’s the real strength of the completed scheme: the twisting and tapering Anniversary Building bridges between ranges at either end to make a firm, continuous boundary to the street, and pulls back enough on the river side to open long uninterrupted views through the campus.’
