I'm guessing that the new Jericho Health Centre by Hawkins Brown Architects won't be to everyone's taste but for me at least it's good to see some contemporary Architecture being built in this part of Oxford. A new building by Zaha Hadid has recently started on site and a Herzog and de Meuron building has currently been submitted for Planning Permission.
If anyone else has Hawkins Brown shots I started a group for them : www.flickr.com/groups/hawkinsbrown/pool
From Wikipedia : "Jericho Health Centre is a health centre on Walton Street in Oxford, England.[ It is named after the district of Jericho, just northwest of central Oxford. It is part of the United Kingdom's National Health Service (NHS).
In June 2012, New Radcliffe House, further south on the opposite side of Walton Street, on the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter development site, was completed by the construction company Longcross. The centre moved into the ground floor of this new building in 2012. The architects were Hawkins Brown, based in London and the building cost £11 million. Its location has opened up a view of the historic Grade I listed Radcliffe Observatory from Walton Street."

A square format crop of the glass fins on the sides of the Hawkins/Brown University of Oxford Biochemistry Department. If you're interested in photographing it yourself it's tucked area in the Science Area behind the University Museum.
PS Thanks to everyone that commented and faved my shots yesterday, it was one of my busiest days on Flickr for a while (still didn't make Explore though....).

When I visited the Nottingham Science and Technology Park I didn't know who the Architects that had designed it were. As the founder of the Hawkins / Brown flickr group I really should've been able to figure it out.....

I'd seen photos on flickr of these colourful buildings but hadn't worked out where in Nottingham they were. By a happy co-incidence they were just across the road from the Exxopolis Luminarium at the Nottingham Science Park.

The Nottingham Science and Technology Park features colourful buildings by Hawkins / Brown (right) and Studio Egret West (left) but what really makes the place worth a visit in my opinion is the landscaping by Grant Associates.
