What inspired Augustus pugin to design big ben?
First.... he was one of 3 designers of the reconstruction of the Clock Tower that houses Big Ben (The largest of the bells in the clock tower) and the Palace of Westminster after the fire of 1834. He made working drawings for Charles barry to design with. His part was help with detailings, fittings and furniture. I believe his inspiration came from Charles Barry woh won the job from open competition. Pugin cared little for the gothic styles but worked under Charles barry to get the reconstruction completed. answer: Charles Barry and his restoration project inspired him, not his taste but Pugin simply did his work as a job. I say motivation more than inspiration. Skunkfarmer
