about

From the art deco factories of the 1920s through to the skyscraper boom of the twenty-first century,Modern Londontakes you on an illustrated tour of the capital''s ever-changing landscape.

Shaped variously by war, economics, population growth and design trends, the city has been moulded by some of the greatest modern architects and to this day remains a centre of building design and experimentation. Through intricate graphic illustrations and accessible entertaining text, London''s streets, structures and transport systems of the last century are brought to life. Discover long lost treasures such as the Firestone Factory and marvel at modern-day masterpieces like the London Aquatics centre; delight in previously vilified social housing projects such as the Balfron Tower, and discover the drama behind bold, eccentric designs like the ‘Cheesegrater''.

The city''s skyline can change in an instant;Modern Londoninvites you to sit back and survey the scene so far.
