Up in that London on Friday, watching the world go by sat in traffic I was reminded of the entrance and gates to the British Library....

So I thought I'd start a thread about the use of typography in architecture, what have you got near you?

There's a lot of information here Public lettering (beta version) : British Library about stuff in London, including the British Library.

I also got excited by the work of Chris Labrooy, which you may have seen before>>

What a great idea for a thread, I'll be sure to keep an eye out! It'd be like heaven to live in the 'Bauhaus'

Although I wonder how long it is before someone posts a picture of the Millennium Stadium
