A VISUAL EXPLORATION OF THE BARBICAN ESTATE
Photography.
Pictures taken in October 2024 at the Barbican Estate in London, UK.
‘An icon of Brutalist architecture, the Barbican is one of the UK’s architectural treasures.
Working with a site almost completely razed by the Blitz, the Barbican’s architects, Chamberlain, Powell and Bon, seized the opportunity to propose a radical transformation of how we live in buildings and cities.
The result is one of London’s most ambitious and unique architectural achievements: a city within a city that is raised above street level and draws on a rich palette of references, from ancient Roman fortresses and French Modernism to Mediterranean holidays and Scandinavian design’.
