Unsettling roof forms slip and play in a capricious and humorous manner

Article Abstract:

The cross plan of Robin house is topped by unsettling complex curved roof forms that recall MacCormac Jamieson Prichard's Cable and Wireless building and here they slip and play in a more capricious and humorous manner.
