See the Customer’s Wall

In my words.

This image is a constant reminder of architect Louis I. Kahn’s words: “The sun never knew how great it was until it hit the side of a building.”

I took this photograph in autumnal morning light. The combination of sun, warmth and ancient buildings provides a real spirit of place.

In the foreground is the Guild Chapel, beside Shakespeare’s schoolroom and opposite the site of New Place, his later home. Stone and timber each catch the light in their own way.
