the smithsons arranged the plan of their garden building as a U-shape of student accomodation around a core of kitchens, service spaces, and stairs. all the student rooms face the park-like garden of st. hilda's college, effectively making a backside of the the building's fourth facade. later architects have treated it as one, but you can still see how the smithsons used proportion to add character. they also used a beautiful coalfired brick, as much a victorian reference as stirling's red tiles, but with very different connotations and a much more lively surface. we'll see these elements again in the economist building.

the protected entrance. notice how the diagonal motif from the facade turns up here again, inside as well, and at the covered walkway connecting to the neighbouring buildings. the smithsons achieved a motivic density here usually found in classical music.
can't help thinking miralles had a serious loook at this.
