The Barbican turned 25 on Wednesday.
We get a good view of the tower from the window at Flourish HQ, which means I gaze at it daily while pondering some mental challenge (or wondering what to have for lunch).
It's a brave piece of architecture that to my mind fullfils a number of functions very succesfully - concert hall, exhiition space and home to hundreds
The thing is I can't get over how young it is. I would have guessed 35, 40 or even 45 if anyone had asked, it looks much older than 25 and I can't make up my mind why.
