BATTERSEA POWER STATION, LONDON SW11

Battersea Power Station stands as a supreme monument of industrial Art Deco architecture. Designed in part by Sir Giles Gilbert Scott in the late 1920s, the steel-framed building is clad in millions of signature brown bricks laid in traditional English bond. Scott cleverly applied classical symmetry and vertical detailing, using deep brick pilasters and stepped corbelling to break up the sheer mass of the walls. This monumental brickwork terminates in four iconic, white-fluted concrete chimneys that anchor the building's corners, turning a heavy utilitarian factory into a balanced civic landmark on the London skyline.

Following decades of abandonment, the building has been completely transformed into a vibrant mixed-use destination through a masterful adaptive reuse intervention by WilkinsonEyre.

CLAPHAM SOUTH STATION, BALHAM HILL SW12

Clapham South Underground station, designed by Charles Holden as part of a series of stations along the Northern Line extension from Kennington to Morden which opened on 13th September, 1926.

It’s a Portland stone astylar corner building with a canted front and three entrances. Holden integrated the roundel into the frontage of his stations so that they would be easily identifiable at street level.

In the mid-1930’s a deco apartment block, Westbury Court, was built over it.
