"The architect's aesthetic judgment is a function of myth and reason, a link between the emotional and the rational and the necessary means of entry into the realm of ideas" (Denys Lasdun)
Denys Lasdun's fascination with geology, with the "lie of the land" (which he himself maintained learnt from Frank Lloyd Wright), becomes somehow overwelming in the glazed residential quarters shaped like ziggurats at the University of East Anglia. In any rate they stand as a fascinating counterpoint of the High-Tech Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts by Norman Foster located also on this campus.
