Upper Lawn Pavillion (1959-62) by Alison and Peter Smithson
I cannot precisely recall when I first encountered the work of the Smithsons. As a student of architecture I was intrigued by the reaction the mere mention of their names provoked. It was never neutral. references to the Smithsons made in conversation among architects and teachers who were then in their fifties generated either displays of reverence or a form of dismissal that suggested underlying respect.'
