The Great Restoration on the 99 Percent Invisible Podcast


Just a fascinating story about the restoration of Stirling Castle in Scotland, and why it's a bright, happy yellow (99 Percent Invisible, first 14 minutes of the podcast). The author and some of the folks interviewed don't sound too thrilled with the Castle's "new" appearance, but it sure takes an amazing picture.

Also tells a great story thought the drawings in the attached article - and why the restoration team made the decision they made. The interior with the hammer beam roof truss is just beautiful.
