The Royal College of Physicians, and John Dee

I've discovered a fresh bit of amazing London architecture: the Royal College of Physicians building next to Regent's Park.



I was there Friday afternoon and Saturday morning for a legal event (Chancery Bar Association winter conference) and was immediately impressed by the building. Its style seemed familiar and I wasn't at all surprised to find that it was by Denys Lasdun, architect of the Royal National Theatre and Keeling House (the latter being familiar to me via purplecthulhu).

Even more interestingly the RCP was about to open its exhibition on John Dee, so I was able to get a sneak peek.



I'll definitely be going back soon, both to see the full Dee exhibition and to further admire Lasdun's architecture.
