Spectacular building inside and out, the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) was designed by Grey Wornum (1888-1957). The building is reminiscent of the Stockholm Public Library by Gunnar Asplund (1885-1940) in a subdued neoclassical style (and Art Deco on the inside). Great library and wonderful architecture bookstore.

Great building! But the library, why I haven’t been there before? Entrance is free just bring an ID.
