Time is Away: The Annotated Cosmic House
London, 03.10.22
You are invited to join a guided tour of the Cosmic House by its owner Charles Jencks. This landmark in post-modernist architecture was conceived by Jencks and his wife Maggie, working closely with a group of creative friends. Time is Away’s annotations offer one way through a building shaped by symbolism and allusion. Prepare to enter a world in which every detail means something else.
Excerpts from Charles Jencks’ ‘Hunt the Symbol’, Pidgeon Digital lecture, 1985.
