Blue Crow Media publishes 'Brutalist London' guidebook featuring 50 concrete landmarks

Blue Crow Media has unveiled 'Brutalist London,' an architectural guide authored by Owen Hopkins, featuring photography by Nigel Green. This book showcases more than 50 notable Brutalist structures in the city, such as the Barbican Centre, Southbank Centre, Trellick Tower, and Alexandra Road Housing, alongside lesser-known gems like the 'Camberwell Submarine' and Brunel University. Hopkins, who previously wrote 'Less is Bore,' and Green, recognized for 'Brutalist Paris,' provide striking black-and-white photographs that emphasize the formidable nature of the architecture. This release follows earlier works like 'Brutalist London Map' and 'Brutalist Interiors,' with 'Brutalist Berlin' on the horizon. It highlights contributions from architects like Richard Seifert and Neave Brown, reflecting a renewed interest in post-war concrete design.
